Ready, set, go!
A couple of questions.
1. What exactly constitutes Civil War fabrics?
2. Being in Canada can I send some money for stamps? And how much?
Looking forward to this.
Theresa

I don't have ANY Civil War fabric - what a good way to start!

1. Lola

P.S. Civil War fabrics are a style of fabric that I think tend to be more dusty in color. If you go to a fabric website, like hancock of paducah, and type civil war into the search box you will get pages of examples

Thanks Lola. That is pretty much what I imagined. Just needed confirmation
Theresa

I'm in.

My CW fabrics are all darker with small prints. Lots of brownish colors, maroons. Blue tends to be greyer and go to indigo. Lola's right, just shop it and you'll see. I don't see as much green as I'd like. My yellows are mustard.

I'm doing a large applique wallhanging right now using CW so can use more variety than what I already have.

Yes, Theresa, you can send money. Just send the same as the postage you put on the envelope. If there is a difference we can work it out, no problem.

Going through my stash, I have found several pieces which I think fill the bill. Can we do doubles or should they all be different?
Theresa

Theresa, they should all be the same, but if you cannot do that some can be different.

Any one else signing up???
Theresa

Would love to join, even tho I missed the cut off!

Gwen

I have eight pieces ready to go. So if Grammyp says ok it would be all right with me if you joined us.
Theresa

I have my civil war fabric out just waiting to see how many pieces I need to cut. I am working on a quilt where I need a medium and a dark and background. I have 28 prs of med and dark and need 30 so am hoping I get what I need in this exchange!

Maryv

Grammyp, shall I send 7 or 8 pieces? They are ready to go.
Theresa
