civil war brides quilt

I'm trying out the new settings for posting & i'm not sure i like them.
This is the background fabric i'm thinking of using if there is enough. If not i'll use quilters muslin thats in my stash.Thes are the gorgeous fat 16th's in the starter pack i purchased to get myself going. Not a big range of civil war or repro fabrics to be had where i live. Here is a photo of the quilt & just look it's loaded sideways.

Hugs,
