- The quilts in olden days were made from wool which the old folks them selves prepared. First they carded the wool. Then they spun it. They took it to the weaver. They took it home, and dyed half it red. They lined the quilt with white flannel, and made the top with red. They sewed it together and quilted it with red cotton, and these quilts lasted for years. A lemon coloured one which was made about seventy years ago is still to be seen, and the dye is still good.
