Blue finish

Here's a quilt now quilted that is all blues. Blues, and then some more blues.   The pattern is one of Judy Martin's, and I've quilted some other ones made from that same book.  This quilt's maker ( I have no idea who it was) used fabrics that were low thread-count. I hadn't seen such fabrics in a long while. Actual prints are from years ago because I remember buying some like them but they were better quality than these. I wonder if the older calico companies "sell" their designs or plates or whatever to other companies to reproduce in cheaper greige (sp?) goods?
