She has two blogs, Material Culture, her own blogging choices. Also her Civil War Quilts blog, more,studiously oriented. I learned a fantastic amount from her 2015 series, Stars in a Time Warp. She posted it every other week all that year. Start at January in her archive and learn about each color, i.e. Indigo. I don't know if she has or is putting it in book form, but the archives are the best source. She also published a book ,years ago, Clues in the Calico, out of print but now an e-book. She lists it on her posts. A book I have from AQS IS Dating Fabrics, A Color Guide 1800-1960, small but all photos of fabrics by periods and by color in each, about $25, invaluable. If you use that book you can date,most fabrics by colors and styles. The point is, quilters chose fabrics by what was available at the time. Good luck with your goal!PaulaB quiltshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/03850498636712774853noreply@blogger.com
