Reproduction fabric is fabric that has been – – – reproduced! Antique quilts have wonderful examples of fabric from the 1800’s and early 1900’s. Quite a few fiber companies have come out with large fabric lines based on fabrics in these antique quilts. Often these fabrics are available in different colorways.
