Just tell me this, please. Would they all have the "feel" of civil war period fabrics? I guess I am not a purist at this point, so I dont think it will matter, but I am curious now. TIA!

Im sure there are more but these are the ones I found..
I called Fons & porter and asked a silly question.. I get a Civil War fabric medley every month and I asked- point blank- are the fabrics in my medley ALL civil war reproductions.. She was a bit confused but said yes.. She prob thought I was dumber than a doornail asking such a silly question.. so here's two more that are supposed CW that are in my Medley stash, but I'm kinda questioning.. But then again I am no expert by no means..

I went thru Whittle's Fabric online. I made sure this was what I was getting. MUCH prettier in person than here, sorry but it was taken with camera phone.
Not that expensive and they have a good sellection! This one is supposed to be green and burgandy.
