The Time Traveler's Guide to Printed Cottons, Volume 1 by Margo Krager. 14 page booklet, 10 topics (i.e. Double Pinks, Chintz, Turkey Red Calicos)with 15 authentic reproduction samples. (approximately 2" X 2 1/2" each).
As a textile historian and the owner of ReproductionFabrics.com, my passion lies in uncovering the rich history of printed cottons. Over the years, I’ve studied and sourced fabrics from the Colonial era to the early 20th century, working to preserve their artistry and cultural significance. My collection includes seven antique fabric sample books, and I’ve had the privilege of designing 27 reproduction fabric lines, bringing historic textiles back to life for quilters, designers, and historians alike.
To share this knowledge, I’ve written The Time Traveler’s Guide to Printed Cottons, Volume 1—a 14-page booklet covering ten key fabric styles, from Double Pinks to Chintz and Turkey Red Calicos, complete with 15 authentic reproduction fabric samples. It’s a wonderful resource for those who love historic textiles and want to learn more about how these prints shaped quilting and fashion.
If you love fabric history as much as I do, this guide is for you!
