Quilt-to-Wear

After the Connecticut Historical exhibit (where there was a knock-out quilted petticoat) I visited the Yale Center for British Art and zeroed in on Ford Madox Brown's "Pretty Baa-Lambs" where the woman is wearing a quilted skirt. I'm giving a detail because it's so grand. It's from the 1850s.
