The outer border was my addition; the original pattern didn't use one. As for the blocks, I used scraps, mostly Civil War reproduction fabrics on the dark side and scraps from my considerable stash of neutrals. I pick up interesting neutrals every time I stop in a fabric shop - love them! Thanks for your kind words.
