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. :)
