About the book >.>.> Quilting goes even further back than the Amish. They state “it is an ancient art likely appearing before the time of Christ in ancient Egypt China and India. The insulation value of three layers of fabric was learned early and quilting made its way to England as quilted clothing under the armor of the Crusaders returning from the Middle East. Although quilting and patchwork both existed separately in Europe it is believed the marriage of the two into the patchwork quilt first happened in America.” Quilts have evolved over time to become much more than a utilitarian bedcover.
