I LIKEE! You don't want you can send to me! I am saving civil war fabric for my second CW quilt. DH loved his first one so much.
|
I love what you have done with these fabrics. They should be beautiful when combined together!
|
I think the muslin background would work but I like the idea of using the cheddar color or maybe a light tan color. Pathways were traditionaly green so using a dark green in the CW fabrics would look great. The pathway can be diamond or hexagon shaped. There is a link to the QB Quilt Gallery in the QB, I think it's the 2nd or 3rd post. Look there at the GFG pictures. There are a few with the green pathway and you get to see several ways to arrange your GFG blocks. I think it will be beautiful when finished!

They look lovely and challenging to make.

I like them. I recall that you had some concerns but these are likely true to the genre.
|
Love it!! I'm a civil war fabric addict!!

I love your blocks. Civil war reproductions are my favorite fabrics. Takes a lot of patience to make this pattern. The only suggestion I would make is to use a softer color fabric for the outside rounds versus the muslin. I too would look at pictures on line to determine what shade to go with tho. Beautiful work.

These are lovely. Keep going just the way you started. froggyintexas

I basted some together and laid them out on top of muslin to see how they look. What do you think? Too dull?[ATTACH=CONFIG]345940[/ATTACH]

Lovely! Keep on making em and be sure to post pictures again later so we can see the top when done. I think it will be great!
