Hmmm, so I'm off on a tangent already, and it's only January 5. Barbara Brackman has opened a new blog called Civil War Quilts. It's going to feature weekly articles about people and quilts of that era, and she's going to include a free block pattern each week, too. It seems like an interesting way to use the box of repro fabrics I got last February for no reason, Colonial Christmas by Marcus Brothers. This first block is called 'Catch Me If You Can.' Who knows, maybe I'll have a new holiday quilt by December ...

I love your background fabric! I joined in too ;-) I can't imagine having four dogs under your feet LOL.
I like your Catch Me block. What a fun project. I couldn't say no either.
Thanks for the link! I am not a quilter (though I have a passion for quilts) but I am a history nut and the Civil War was one of my obsessions not so long ago... I will enjoy this blog.
I'm following that new blog too. Though I am not making the blocks. Meanwhile on my list for 2011 is to finish 1 of my CW repro quilts.
Let me know if you need repro, I would be happy to donate to the cause!
