Barbara Brackman's Material Culture blog has GLORIOUS ideas

When you say antique look quilts
and information
just say
~~~ BARBARA BRACKMAN ~~~
Barbara is such a wealth of information, photos and ideas.  She also is an author, designer and also designs fabrics for MODA
Right now, she is showing different "Civil War" blocks.  After all it is the 150th year anniversary of the end of the terrible war.
Some ladies have sewn her patterns, and here are some of my favorites.
 
Notice a few have the same fabric selection - the maker is making she uses only those fabric apparently.
AND
There are more to come
 







You see all of the fussy cuts?
I have some of these same fabrics...never saw these ideas in them
This is exactly why I so enjoy looking
at GOOD antique reproduction blocks as well as originals
