Quilts of Love and Valor

Reproduction Quilts and an Authentic Civil War Love Story

Becky Wright

Description

Touched by the tender, real-life letters of Jacob and Emeline Ritner, a husband and wife separated by the American Civil War, Becky Wright shares quilt patterns based on captivating stories the couple shared.

Tales of the battlefield, news from the home front and love maintained through nearly four years of separation are captured in 11 antique-style designs, perfect for reproduction fabrics. Excerpts from Jacob and Emeline's letters – the only complete set of Civil War letters known to exist – shed light on the inspiration behind each quilt, giving you a sense of what life was like for everyday people during the Civil War.
