KANSAS CITY STARS BY BARBARA BRACKMAN BORDERLAND
Borderland by Barbara Brackman. This book, based on The Kansas City Star's 2007 block-of-the-month project, offers a beautiful sampler quilt as well as other quilts and projects. The patterns relate to stories of women affected by the clashes along the Missouri / Kansas border during the Civil War. The quilt, made in shades of butternut and blue, is reminiscent of the uniforms worn by Civil War soldiers.
