I wonder how that pattern would look with other fabrics. It is so stunning as it is but I'm not sure I could find fabric like that. What classifies fabric as civil war fabric and what size were you squares they look so tiny. I love this quilt you should be so proud. I keep coming back to it to look at it. If only.

I really like how it all works so well together: fabric, design, quilting. I usually like brighter colors, but I would not mind displaying this one in my home!!
