And so some people believe that that's where the influence of the crazy quilt came from in terms of like the design.

But then you also see different fabrics that are making their way into those crazy quilts.

And so there are some Japanese kimono fabrics that are in those quilts.

It was something to show off.

So satin, velvets, fabrics that you would have been proud to show off in your showroom.

In addition to the kimono fabrics, you might find different embroidery.

It's in a designed manner.

So you might have fans or different flowers, spiders, some of those different embroidered motifs making their way onto the quilts and definitely influenced by some of the Japanese craft that was happening.

Like what are all these styles?

Yeah.

So, for example, you mentioned the early quilt.

That's a quilt made before the mid-1800s.

How can we know when it was made?

Well, let's look at the fabric.

Also thinking about the technology that exists.

And so maybe you don't see as much machine sewing.

You might notice more hand sewing.

Earlier fabrics, there's some fabric types.

So for example, chintz fabric, which is basically this calico fabric, which...

I would define that as a unbleached, not fully processed, heavy piece of cotton.
