    If those fabrics could tell stories....oh, the things that they have seen.

    Beautiful work!

    Hey everybody! Thanks for the nice comments. No pms yet but I'm not surprised. These fabrics are hard to come by. Last night while I watched the game I sorted and realized I have more than I thought. I have to play with each fabric to make sure it will be strong enough. I thought about what one of you wrote about repros- if I have to go that route I may put all the antique blocks in the center and then do something, rather than mix them up. I really don't want to mix the fabrics in the blocks. I'm trying to be a purist with these 3 quilts :D
    Thanks a lot for looking and commenting!!

    You did a great job selecting the light and dark fabrics. I can practically see the quilt finished. It will be sooooo pretty.
