    I am planning a Civil War era quilt. Does anyone have any pictures of old fabrics or any ideas on what kinds of fabrics to use?
    Thank you,
    Julia

    Wow! The Reproduction Fabric site is great! I had no idea there were so many colours and prints available at that time! I'm going to check eBay next! Thank you very much!
