Quilted cloth dates back more than 5,000 years, but the oldest known quilt that was made specifically to be a blanket is the Guicciardini Quilt. The quilt was made by a textile studio in Florence, Italy, for a nobleman's wedding in 1395; its design alternates flat areas of stitching with puffy sections of fabric.
