Thank you so much. It was hard to take this picture, as it's not allowed to use flash, and besides it's very gloomy inside the Church (made from Marmor brought from Italy more than 700 hundred years ago- by a private family;D)

Hi Senna3,
I today received this answer from Inger M. Godoe:

Hey,
It’s been uncertain about this cloth, but in the local historybook ”Borgund and Giske”, I do find a possible version:
The cloth is made by a young girl. Her name was Karen Breier. What you are asking for should according to what I read might be the initials of her parents: HOSB = Hans Olufsen Breier (1623-1704). He was vicar in Aukra and Dean in Romsdal. And his wife,
ACDB = Anne Christensdatter Bernhoft (1624 – 1705)

I do think the person who looked up these facts, would be very happy, if you sent her an e-mail:
"Inger Magelssen Godø"
