Just as the name implies, these are some of Mary Koval's particularly favorite "blues, etc.," in some of her most-loved designs, spanning a half-century of rich textile history.
The wonderful deep blue and brown combinations were used in the most stunning quilts of the mid-1800s and Mary has reproduced some of the intricate patterns - pin dots, paisleys, florals and geometrics - for this collection.

Many distinctive quilt styles began to appear during this period as well, including popular blue and white quilts, often featuring alternating blocks, fringe and overstuffed pieces.

These patterns are perfect for creating authentic reproduction quilts.

These reproduction fabrics are great for making items for around the house.  I have made hot pads, placemats, coasters for the kitchen, and they work very well.  The designs have a timeless quality (& hide marks & stains really well!)  So dont feel you have to use them just for quilts!

Because of ther colours & designs I find men are quite partial to them & I have used them for making gifts for men - which is sometimes very hard to find a suitable fabric.
