Colonial Times
Colonial style has different meanings for every country. The Dutch colonies, the British colonies, and colonies of every country, including the American colonies, each has a different style, a different flavor. Add to this that one might have a colonial home of someone like Benjamin Franklin or someone who was just a farmer and one can see how complex decorating might be!
For our purpose the Colonial Style fabric category has fabrics that be in any home of the American colonial period, with emphasis on the patterns that are the simpler prints, rather than elaborate woven silks.
Toiles play a part in this look as well. It was during colonial times that Benjamin Franklin while in France, visited Jouy to see the printing process; and even bought toile back to his wife in the colonies!
