Quilting through ages and dating old quilts
Collectors seek dated quilts and craftspeople stitch them, tracing origins from ancient Egypt to Asia and Europe. Experts note dating hints include fabric types, paper batting dates, and design styles such as Liberty patterns, stenciling, autograph and log cabin motifs, with a rise in rayon 1910 and acetate in the 1920s.
