ReplyDeleteWow--fascinating! Look at those lovely, vibrant colors in such beautiful border prints!
ReplyDeleteI wonder if not much of the border prints were used in the quilts because you'd have to buy so much more yardage just to use the border print? Maybe the borders were used in other things like pillowcases, or garments? Or maybe they got used but it's really difficult to recognize a border print after it's been chopped to bits in blocks, especially if it was not fussy-cut?
