Modern trends in the creation of textile compositions are based on the use of various materials and ways of decorating them. Patchwork has been one of the widespread decorative techniques for a long period, so there is an urgent need for a more detailed study of the creative heritage of designer cells, fashion centers, as well as individual masters from artistic textiles to create a theoretical basis and information base for the development of new products. The historical prerequisites for the creation and decoration of products based on patchwork are determined. The paper outlines the main directions and prospects for expanding the range of textile compositions created on the basis of the patchwork technique.
