Janequilter: thanks for pointing out Frank's11. I have scoured EBay for fabric sellers and never even seen his stuff, it's amazing that you can search and search and never know what you are missing. (Wonder how many other treasures are undiscovered...) I emailed him and he responds very quickly. Will probably order some batiks soon.

Just went and pulled out some of my CW repros. Most are Latimer Farms by Paula Barnes for Marcus, purchased on EBay from patsfatquarters. Here's a sampling so you can see what some of them look like...[ATTACH=CONFIG]573750[/ATTACH]

Thank you to everyone for your great suggestions on civil war fabric. I found everything I needed at Marcus Brothers fabric. Paula Barnes is a wonderful designer, but my favorite by far is Pat Buda. I love all of her collections and have really stocked up. So thank you to everyone who recommended Marcus Brothers. It definitely has the best Civil War reproductions in my opinion!
I unfortunately had a bad experience with the eBay site Frank11. The reproduction fabric he sent was neither civil war nor attractive. He unfortunately refused to respond to any of my messages putting forth my dissatisfaction. So I cannot recommend that site. His feedback indicates that he has many satisfied customers, but I am not one of them.
