Copyright Law and Quilted Art, 9 J. Marshall Rev. Intell. Prop. L
THE JOHN MARSHALL REVIEW OF INTELLECTUAL PROPERTY LAW PATCHWORK PROTECTION: COPYRIGHT LAW AND QUILTED ART MAUREEN B. COLLINS ABSTRACT Historically, quilts have been denied the same copyright protection available to any other expression in a fixed medium. When quilts have been considered protectable, the protectable elements in a pattern have been limited, or the application of the substantial similarity test has varied widely. One possible explanation for this unequal treatment is that quilting is viewed as 'women's work.' Another is that quilts are primarily functional. However, quilts have evolved over time and may now be expensive collectible pieces of art; art that deserves copyright protection. This article traces the history of quilt making, addresses the varying standards of protection afforded to quilts and concludes that consistent and comprehensive protection is needed for this art form.

PATCHWORK PROTECTION: COPYRIGHT LAW AND QUILTED ART MAUREEN B. COLLINS * INTRODUCTION When is a quilt a blanket and when is it art? This question takes on greater importance as the universe of quilted art expands and changes. Once relegated to attics and church craft bazaars, the quilt has come out of the closet. Today, quilts are found in museums 2 and corporate headquarters. 3 They are considered to be among the most collectible "new" forms of art. 4 Quilting is a multi-million dollar industry. 5 Handmade quilts fetch asking prices in the tens of thousands of dollars.

History of Quilting
History of Quilting When the first settlers came to this country they brought with them their quilting skills. New fabric was hard to come by, so fabric for clothing and for quilts had to be used and reused saving as much as possible from worn clothing. Thus the patchwork quilt was born. Scraps of fabric were cut into geometric patterns that fit together into larger blocks of design. Many of these patterns have been passed through generations, created by the ingenuity of our ancestors and traded within communities. Names for particular patterns sometimes changed as they moved from one part of the country to another, reflecting the environment within which it was named. (i.e. a pattern called the pine tree pattern in Connecticut might be named bear’s path in Ohio). Quilt making is an art form that both individuals, as well as groups of people participated in. From the lore surrounding quilt making we learn that parents passed the skills for quilt making on to their children at a very young age. The children would start with small patches of fabric, and learn to sew the very fine stitches needed for beautiful and elaborate quilts. Historically, quilting has generally been practiced by, and associated with women. This could be because the sewing skills needed to make a quilt have always been an integral part of women’s lives. Learning how to sew was such an important skill for girls to have that it was taught and practiced in the home and at school. Women of all classes participated in this form of expression.

Getting Started. Padded wear could be put on under armour to make it more comfortable, or even as a top layer for those who couldn't afford metal armour. For a time, the trend in wholecloth quilting was a preference for all-cotton white quilts. Obviously, quilting as a craft came to America with the early Puritans. Can I get hurt using a quilting machine? Playing on the word crazy they gave plans for "crazy" tea parties using mismatched invitations and other "crazy" themes. Wrap Up. This meant women no longer had to spend time spinning and weaving to provide fabric for their family's needs. In the lateth-century quilt revival, teachers like Elly Sienkiewicz repopularized the Baltimore Album style. Quilting in Modern Times Quilting has experienced a revival over the last 60 years. The wool wholecloth quilt was made in by Martha Crafts Howard. One of the most popular exhibits was the Japanese pavilion with its fascinating crazed ceramics and asymmetrical art. The story of a family was also commemorated in hand-pieced fabric. Essentially, a knee lifter is an attachable part that lets you control the position of a presser foot with your knee. Often these quilts provide the only decoration in a simply furnished home and they also were commonly used for company or to show wealth.
