Lots of old homespun
Marcia has a new stock of linen textiles from Pennslyvania. They are dated early 1850s to 1870s. The linen and cotton fabrics are avaialble in a variety of plaids and colors.
Quilts often would be made out of fabric bought specifically for that purpose, or extra fabric left over after making clothes. Many early quilts still in existence today, were made either of imported fabric or have some imported fabric along with the home woven fabrics (generally wool.) Backings were often of linen, which was considered a utility fabric.
