===Intarsia=== Rarer and less well-known are quilts made by men in a military setting. They are made of [[broadcloth]] which is cut into elements abutting each other as [[intarsia]] and then over-sewn. Front and back of the work are in principle identical and the quilts reversible, except in cases where elements of appliqué, embroidery or trapunto have been added on the front, which is quite common in more elaborate or illustrative pieces.<ref>{{cite news|url=https://www.theaustralian.com.au/arts/review/soldiers-and-sailors-quilts-attest-to-long-adventurous-careers/news-story/599ff4293138280983c620da472450e6|access-date=May 9, 2024|url-access=subscription|title=Soldiers and sailors quilts attest to long, adventurous careers|author=Christopher Allen|author-link=Christopher Allen (critic)|date=April 27, 2024|newspaper=[[The Australian]]}}</ref><ref>{{cite book|last=Gero|first=Annette|title=Quilts: The Fabric of War 1760–1900|year=2024|publisher=The Beagle Press|isbn=978-0947349721}}</ref>
