We received this note from quilter & Aunt Grace aficionado, Amy DeCesare of Delmont, PA.  Like Amy, we’re amazed that ten years have passed so quickly…check out her recent blog post & great photos!  Thanks for your note, Amy!

I was just writing a new post for my blog, about a quilt I made 10 years ago using Aunt Grace Through the Year.  {Ten years ago, already???}   When I linked to the Marcus Brothers website, I discovered your 25th Anniversary celebration is underway!

 Here is one of the photos I used in the blog post.  As I mentioned in the feature, I do a lot of modern sewing, but will always love vintage quilts and fabrics.  I plan to make another quilt soon from the prints I’ve got left from this line.

Congratulations on 25 years of beloved designs, Judie!  I look forward to many more!
Regards,  Amy DeCesare

Another Look at Reproduction Fabrics

I’ve had reproduction prints on the brain this morning, and while my personal quilting style doesn’t scream “repro”, my working here at Marcus I’ve gained an appreciation for them.  So I started thinking about how I could use them beyond a Civil War quilt…I’ve always pictured them as a perfect look for decorating a den – a mix of plush pillows (complete with tassels & embellishments), upholstered valances, covered lampshades…or a great quilt for your favorite uncle. Do you use reproduction prints in “non-repro” ways? Tell us how!
