I am lucky to have a QS about an hour away that specializes in CW repro fabrics.
I was wondering if maybe it might go quicker to sew it by hand because then you could put the pieces of each block in a baggie and take them with you to work on now and then whenever you have a minute or two. My nephews were involved in the Civil War re-enactments and it was fun to go and watch when they were doing a re-enactment.
