Bonjour I am katelin. My class is doing a poster/ speech on pioneer quilts. Here's mine:when women dyes the quilts they had to use natural resources and these are some natural resources. 1. Blood roots, Lilly of the valley, butter nut hulls, bittersweet, madder, balm blossoms, black walnut hulls, bed straw roots, marigolds, horseradish and blackberries.There are a variety of colors too. Here are all the colors! Deep red, green, gold, brownish orange, red, pink, reddish brown, orange, orange yellow, brown and purple. Dyer's green weed was grown in America and may have been brought to Canada by the loyalists.
