Linda Bergmann, Civil War Elegance


I found a picture on the web in a group of favorites from Sacramento's River City Quilt Show
in 2013. I liked Linda's palette and then when I looked at a close-up I could see why.


She's used several fabrics from my Civil War Reunion collection for Moda from a few years ago. I am impressed by the way Linda uses modern paper-piecing techniques and Karen-Stone-inspired design with the old-fashioned palette derived from natural dyes.


Various photos show the colors slightly different but I hope
you get the picture.



Linda's been winning a lot of ribbons with her quilts over the past few years.

Fractured Star by Linda Bergmann

The pattern is An Unusual Lone Star from Karen K. Stone. See the pattern here:


Linda's statement: "This star is a variation of the Star of Bethlehem; all paper pieced with Civil War fabrics."
