<p>[QUOTE="evelyb30, post: 14043, member: 36"]My first reaction was 1970s, but that doesn't mean some of the fabrics couldn't be older. Some of it looks like someone cut the bottom off a Penthouse (no relation to the magazine) caftan. Those were early 70s. Those tiny prints are usually circa 1977-1982. Yoyo quilts are made out of scrap and quilters don't toss them. You'll find quilts sometimes made of fabrics manufactured 30 years apart if not more.[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
