Quilts of Gee's Bend

Perfect for you if...

You're a quilter who loves history and wants your projects to mean something beyond decoration.
You appreciate learning the human stories behind historical artefacts, especially women's experiences often left out of textbooks.
You're drawn to reproduction fabrics and period-accurate projects that connect you to a specific moment in time.

Maybe not for you if...

You're a beginner quilter looking for quick, simple projects without needing historical context for each block.
You find Civil War history too heavy or emotionally difficult to engage with creatively.
You prefer modern, contemporary quilt designs over historically inspired patterns.

About this book

Barbara Brackman's Civil War Sampler presents fifty quilt blocks that commemorate the 150th anniversary of the Civil War. Most blocks were originally published in the 1930s and were selected for the symbolism their names carry in telling stories from the era's women. The book includes period photographs and first-person accounts alongside the quilt block patterns. Each block is presented in two colorways with instructions for both 8" and 12" sizes. Quilters can choose from pieced or appliquéd designs. The patterns use reproduction fabrics and can be combined to create a tribute quilt.
