Over on our selling site (located near the top of the right hand side bar) and under the fabric section, you'll see swatches of the fabric line and the available yardage left.
We've sent an email out to our civil war participants to see if they would like any additional yardage at $6.50 per yard!!
We're giving those gals thru the weekend to let us know if they would like anything in particular....otherwise, beginning next Tuesday, it's up for grabs to anyone at the sale price of $6.50 per yard. A great line of fabric at a great price!
