Uses I spy quilts can be made by cutting and sewing together all sorts of novelty and pictorial objects to showcase specific objects in a piece of printed fabric. Young children always have fun finding and naming the objects they see. Attic windows quilts are another example of designs that work nicely with fussy cuts.

Interestingly, these early pieces were found to be Palaeolithic terracotta figurines, rather than cooking vessels, as you might expect, demonstrating how widely terracotta has been used in the art....

In December 2014, Morphy Auctions of Denver, PA offered more than 19 reproduction lamps with the copied Tiffany signature on the leaded glass shades and/or the metal bases sold with them.
