Is this civil war reproduction fabric?
|
I would consider it civil war
|
It is a Kim Diehl line. She is not known for CW repros although she does seem to gravitate to that color palette with a bit more whimsy thrown into some of the prints, more thimbleberries or folk style in my mind. However some of those prints could play very nicely with CW repros. I searched for the line on other sites to see bigger picture of prints. http://www.henryglassfabrics.net/fab.../wit-wisdom-1/

How can I find a civil war line? I tried searching civil war but am not getting fabric lines, just Etsy sellers who aren’t naming the designers.

Many sites are classifying Kims line Wit and Wisdom as Civil War Repro and the palette does seem to go with many so I seem to have mispoken in my previous post. Never considered her a CW repro person.
Also look for lines by Jo Morton (Moda). There are shops out there that specialize in nothing but CW repro fabrics. I don't have a huge collection of them and what I have I got in trade. Here are some links I got doing a google search of Civil War Reproduction Fabric http://www.reproductionfabrics.com/shelf.php?ID=39 https://www.twobeesfabric.com/ http://www.quiltbook.com/civwarrepo.htm |
Some names I look at it Marcus Brothers, Andover, Windham there are others. Designers to look for are Paula Barnes, Faye Burgos , Nancy Gere, Judie Rothermal, there are others but can't think of them right now.
Some places I find my CW fabrics at there are others but these are a few places I have ordered from. Hope these help. https://www.whittlesfabrics.com/fabric-yardage https://www.homesteadhearth.com/index.htm https://www.thousandsofbolts.com/ind...category_ID=35 |
I think some of the dark fabrics could be used as civil war fabrics. There is a quilt store in Texas that my friend orders from for her civil war fabrics. It is call "2 Bees Quilt Shop". I believe that is name of it and not sure if the "2" is spelled out. Sometimes I just google "civil war fabrics" and find the fabrics that way. Good luck in your search

Try going to:
quiltshops.com type in civil war & click on the thumbnail tab. Voila! |
Thanks everyone!
