I do think there are some 30's fabrics in there, but you do have to date according to the youngest fabrics. There were fabrics in the 30's which always reminded me of the prints in my dad's boxers shorts, lol. They were not the typical pastel prints you think of when you think of 30's and 40's fabrics. In this quilt, specifically, they are the rust print in the top photo and the matching blue and green prints in the second photo that I think may be older fabrics.
