All fabric is pre-washed 100%cotton.  Stitched with cotton thread.  Batting is pre-shrunk 80% cotton  Fabrics are "period" colors, small prints.  The backing is a complementary print.  Pieces are machine stitched as the originals were.  The sewing machine was a new and welcome invention for quilters in the 1860's.  The quilts are then hand quilted as the originals with a 2"by2" diagonal "utility" stitch. 

 

                                                        

25 patch with muslin sashing.                     Civil War pattern 9 patch with sashing.

 

These quilts are individual projects, never mass produced.  While patterns are constant, the fabric will make each quilt a "one of a kind".  Yes, they are made here in Gettysburg, PA. USA.
