Civil War Tribute -- Block of the Month 1 (of 12)- SOLD OUT

Approaching the 150 year commemoration of the American Civil War, Marcus Fabrics and Judie Rothermel partnered with Homestead Hearth to create this block of the month program for 2010.

The quilt features 48 prints from Marcus’ Civil War Tribute Collection designed by Judie Rothermel.  It showcases a variety of sawtooth and star blocks, each representing a major battle fought during the war.   This reproduction quilt, when complete, will recall the drama of this significant era.  The Civil War Tribute collection encompasses the historical accuracy and current appeal for which Judie is well known.   Highlights include an antique toile-inspired design and commemorative print denoting key battle locations and leaders, depicting both southern and northern points of view.

The Civil War Tribute BOTM includes the fabrics and pattern needed to complete the quilt top and binding.

Monthly patterns will include:

• Detailed cutting and piecing instructions to make the blocks needed for that month.

• Historical notes about key battles in the Civil War including source material and quotations from prestigious university libraries including Duke University, Notre Dame, and others.
