Traditional Quilts

Traditional quilts are handcrafted blankets made by stitching together multiple layers of fabric, typically consisting of a decorative top, a middle layer of batting for warmth, and a backing fabric. They often feature intricate patterns, designs, or images created through various quilting techniques. Historically, quilts served practical purposes for warmth and comfort but also became artistic expressions and family heirlooms, reflecting cultural stories, regional styles, and personal creativity. Each quilt's design and craftsmanship can reveal much about its creator and the era it was made in, making them treasured items with both functional and artistic significance.
