“Panels for Overdress” is an anonymous piece of textile art created sometime around 1970. The panels are woven from white and black fibers and display a simple geometric pattern. The fabric is bordered by a dark blue edging. The artwork is now housed in the Minneapolis Institute of Art, and is an example of traditional textile production and design.
