What a beautiful quilt! I love it. You should be very, very proud of it! I am working on a mini Civil War quilt and am piecing by hand. First hand piecing I have done and it is quite a challange.

It is so gorgeous. I love samplers. I don't think I will ever get sick of doing samplers. I also wanted to do one in Civil War fabric also. It is beautiful and take your time. Note how you are forming a bond with this quilt. That is the VERY best part of making a quilt. The special bond you have with it. It has all your secrets, your dreams, your wishes, your anger, your joy all wrapped up in this quilt and no one knows about it except you. It is beautiful. Edie
