I have to agree that http://www.stitch-n-frame.net has a wonderful selection of CW materials....I am very impressed. Prices are the about the same as the store but the site does have a lot of different ones that I have not seen before!!!! I really love the Marcus line. I bought a bunch of it this weekend at my LQS - I have not bought any fabric on line yet....ever...but will I am sure in the future.

Go to quiltshops.com under item search type in civil war fabrics and hit seach. There are over 200 shops featured there. Its a good way to find the right price too.

Thanks Jackie,

I have done that already, but I really appreciate you mentioning it as many folks are not aware of this wonderful resource. Knowing that they don't list all quilt shops is what led me to ask the knowledgeable quilters here. :thumbup:

Thanks. :thumbup: I'm so new to this genre, I didn't realize that their newest collection was CW. :oops: Much appreciated.

I bought 4 different sets of fifty 8x11 pieces of CW fabrics on eBay for a scrappy quilt (well, it was originally for the Dear Jane but I just couldn't make myself do it). I don't remember the price but I'm sure I didn't pay too much for it.

Thanks for the tip, Pam. I have been checking ebay, too. I'm sure I haven't seen them all of course, have found some FQ's for 1.65 each, not bad, so watching those as a possibility. Haven't looked today tho, so off I go...
