    Default Leesburg (sp?) civil war quilt by Jo

    Jo is a wonderful lady who enjoys Civil War history and pieces the most beautifully pieced quilt tops. I have had the pleasure of quilting several of her quilts, each named for a battle during the Civil War. This quilt measures 95 x 95. We chose Hobbs 80/20 batting and a "tarnish gold" thread which stitched out very well on top and bottom even with the darker colors on top combined with a light color backing.
