Four years of research, one trip to Italy, one Kalamazoo paper, and five rewrites later...I just signed off on the galleys of Chapter 7 of Medieval Clothing and Textiles 8, aka "Anomaly or Sole Survivor? The Impruneta Cushion and Early Italian 'Patchwork'."
The next time anyone, ANYONE, tells you that they didn't have patchwork in the Middle Ages, or tries to claim that it started in England around 1700, show them this. And watch the reaction.
Yeah. It's that good. :)

Colors are a deep olive print, a soft sandy yellow, and a multi-colored olive green, yellow, and red print that looks like a stained glass window, plus a chocolate brown backing. All are in 100% cotton flannels per your request, with a cotton batting. I think you'll like it quite a bit!

Hugs.
