Patchwork Bedding Gets a 21st Century Makeover
These new patchwork quilts use modern color schemes and contemporary prints to rejuvenate a craft that is centuries old.
Why are the quilts we remember from our grandmothers’ homes making a comeback? Because integrating nostalgic pieces into modern décor gives homes a feeling of simplicity and stability. An eclectic mix of old and new can strike the perfect balance between of-the-moment fashion and your own individuality.

Certainly not how my grandma used to make them! But definitely better!
Those are gorgeous.
