That's what I was thinking. I'll have to bounce ideas off you to get me started. I think I should be ready about mid July. I need to get school done--a college orientation with daughter done, several WIP finished...then I want to start one. :wink:

He says he doesn't have a favorite color so I'm thinking red/blue/tan....

I love this one... http://www.sugarhousequiltshop.com/catalog/item/5025952/5047613.htm

And there's a great price on these--I take it from the name of them, they are Civil War era prints, right? http://www.sugarhousequiltshop.com/page/page/4174601.htm

Karla, I love that site even to use as a reference to find fabric on the sites that dont give a description of the fabric era!! Some of the fabrics on there are pre- & post- Civil war as well as civil war, if it doesnt say what era, check on the BonnieBlue site.
Oh the Colonies line is circa 1850s I believe

Have fun!!!!
