Reproduction Fabrics Make a Stunning Quilt

A Wonderful Quilt in Modern Fabrics, Too!

Beautifully patterned fabric is simply stunning in this lovely quilt. The colors and prints evoke the mid-seventeenth century but the quilt will fit wonderfully with modern decor.

The quilt was originally designed to showcase fabrics reproduced from a circa 1852 French Mill Book by Howard Marcus for Moda. You can still find some of the fabrics on Etsy but there may not be enough left for a full quilt. Instead, shop for similar colors among what’s available now.

Of course, the quilt will be charming in modern colors and textures too. Large pieces allow you to showcase beautiful prints.

Just be mindful of value as you’re selecting fabric so the overall design pops. Choose your favorite colors and make the quilt uniquely yours.

The finished quilt is 77 ½” x 92 ½”.

PLEASE NOTE: Quilting Digest has featured many patterns from vendors participating in the Craftsy Marketplace, most of which have been deleted by Craftsy. It's going to take awhile for us to hunt down new sources for those patterns. In the meantime there are many links to patterns on our site that no longer work. We apologize if this article contains one or more of those links and appreciate your patience while we straighten things out. Thank you!

PLEASE NOTE: Quilting Digest does not sell or otherwise provide patterns directly. We showcase patterns and projects from various vendors, bloggers and other sources.
