Good morning. I felt a kindred spirit in Barbara as too love putting everything in order. I'm looking forward into diving some of her books. Nothing better than combining my love of quilting and history. Enjoy.
This was a fantastic interview. I have the "Civil War Preproduction Quilts" plus purchased many of her fabrics for making a Soldiers Cot Quilt. It's the only quilt top I've ever completed. Super easy cutting, fitting and stitching. A great beginners quilt. Thank you for bringing Ms. Brachman on your show.
I have a copy of Barbara Brackman's Civil War Quilts and was lucky enough to take a class from Terry Clothier Thompson who produced some of the contemporary versions of the quilts that Barbara included in the book. What a fabulous experience that was. Terry was a speaker for our quilt guild here in northern California. She then put on a civil war quilt class for us and only eight people signed up. So, the eight of us got the most wonderful amount of attention and information from her. I'll never forget it.
I loved this interview, especially since I live close to the town we're Barbara Brackman lives and the owner of my local quilt store told me she had dementia and was in a "home". Can you believe it? She said people on her team still make her fabric. Nice to see her alive!!
I love this interview! I have a quilt that my Grandmother started around the 70's that is what you just described as a feedsack! Its been handed down unfinished to daughters and now a granddaughter (me), and I finished it in 2020. Its amazing and everytime a relative comes over, they have to sleep under it to add to the memory of my grandmother. Thank you for your wonderful work! I can't wait to buy the book!
Oh My How fun was this. Found it a few weeks ago, but just had the proper time to listen and see a great humorous lady of the times. I was not a fan of "civil war" style fabrics until recently, I've also, just reverted to finding more 1930 s prints. I will say I have been piecing quilt tops for 29 years and @72, my fabrics are changing in value as well as style. LOVE this interview. Thanks Karen.
Wonderful interview! Barbara is a treasure chest of quilt history. I can't think of anyone else who comes close to her. What a gift she is to the quilting community! Thank you, Karen, for this interview.
You are such a great interviewer Karen! I don't normally love interviews, but you ask questions that I want to know! This was especially good, Barbara Brackman is such a great teacher of History.
I have a difficult time hearing Barbara. I'll try watching the video on my tv later for better volume options. I'm really looking forward to this interview!
Thank you so much for these interviews! I always learn a lot from each of your speakers, and it’s great to have the feeling of intimacy you seem to create through video, as if we are all having coffee together in the same room. You’ve done such a wonderful job at engaging your audience and your guests.
Thanks for the interview. Barbara is wonderful and I read both her blogs which are full of history and information. I love her fabrics and before her Civil War Sampler block book I had never heard of reproduction fabrics but I know now! That is mostly what I have and call the rest of my fabrics "ordinary". I've made her Civil War Sampler quilt and her Union Blues, both of which were challenges as I was a newish quilter when I made the sampler one and the Union Blues was definitely and exercise in patience. I have all the fabrics ready and waiting to make her Richmond Reds when I get inspired. Since I'm not in Facebook or Instagram, where people can send photos of quilts of hers she's made, I emailed her photos of my Civil War Sampler and Union Blues and much to my surprise I got a response almost immediately. She was so gracious. I hope she goes on making fabric designs for years to come.
I had enjoyed her books for years. I knew I was a real quilt maker after I made the Warrior Eagle quilt from her Civil War Women book. Mostly applique but excellent instructions. It turned out amazing! Thank you, Barbara! And thank you, Karen, for sharing her with us!
My all time favorite quilter, writer, researcher, and quilt historian. I devour her blogs and collect her repro fabrics and books. Great choice for an interview!
OH!!!! She mentions her friend, Bettina. I'm in the BOoneslick Trail Quilters Guild in Columbia, MO wih Bettina Havig. She IS good at geometry!!! So fun to be listening to my Canadian quilt youtuber and hear about a local lady I know. :)
Karen loved your stack of civil war fabric❤ Please do a tutorial on how to make this line of fabric look more modern design. Cant wait to see...it finished. Thank you for the lovely interview. Enjoyed
Love this Gal. I somehow have a brain very similar to her's. I have at least 20 books, (some tomes), on quilt pqtterns. 1 i have used to almost tatters is 1001 quilt patterns. Since house fire things are boxed, in totes, etc., so i don't know where abouts of alot, so can't even tell who wrote it or ??? I will attempt to find her latest. Not computer literate, so i will persevere. Thank you again for putting forth interviews with the population of the quilt world. Humor, insightful opinions, ideas that generate new ( or old), insightful conversation. Keep on, Karen.
I enjoy all of your videos Karen, but I think your Quilt Circle interviews are the best. You seem to find the most interesting people....or maybe your great questions bring out the best in them. Thank you!
Thank you so much for this interview with Barbara Brackman. I loved hearing her stories. I found your questions brought these out so well. I have the first edition of her Encyclopedia of Pieced Quilts and find it a fascinating resource. I’m quite interested to see how it has been updated in the Third Edition.
Hahahahaha! More cowbell! I remember when her Encyclopedia of Quilting first came out. It was a very hot commodity around here. Back then, there was a lot of gatekeeping about what a quilt was -- if it wasn't made from a nameable pattern in an acceptable way, it wasn't a quilt, it was just you making a messy blanket. This was a really good interview!
Thank you for bringing this interview with Barbara Brackman to us. We are so fortunate to have this valuable resource available to us. Love your videos Karen!
Mrs. Besty Rogers showed me her Mother's Indian Wedding Ring Quilt (now called the Pickel Dish) when I was a child. It was beautiful (in purples, yellows, golds and off white). The place Mrs. Rogers show me that quilt was at the old Roger's cabin, on Mills Branch Road, in Clearfield, Kentucky. I have never seen the Indian Wedding Ring (Pickle Dish) pattern used in other areas of the U.S. (now that you both brought that up). Not all the Pickle Dish patterns, offered today, are the same. The one Mrs. Rogers showed me looked a little more like a fish shape (almost like the one you showed on the screen). I have wondered what became of that Indian Wedding Ring quilt (I don't want it - I just want to view it again). It was old when Mrs. Rogers showed it to me. I will be 73 years old soon. If that quilt still exists, it would be well over 100 years old. That wasn't the only hand made quilt in Mrs. Rogers' home. For me, it was the most beautiful of all her quilts. All my Mother's and Mrs. Rogers' quilts were small. There were no Queen or King sized beds back then. Also, People were much smaller back then.
Arvetta I have never thought of historical quilt sizes before you mentioned it. Of course they would be smaller. It might have made it into the state museum archives
Learning about the history of quilting is so enjoyable. Thank you for putting this series together. You seemed different then I worked out why, your hair wasn't in its usual style and you were laughing more. I'm glad life is good now.
Thank you for the fabulous interview! I just ordered 2 copies of Barbara's encyclopedia from Amazon; 1 for me and 1 as a birthday gift for my sister. Several years ago I made a quilted wall hanging from Barbara's William Morris fabric and I love it and would like to do more. I' know I'll be inspired when I receive her book! Love your videos, Karen.
My sister loves Barbara Brackman! She’s loves her fabrics and quilt designs and she has me hooked on them too ! How wonderful that you interviewed her, what a lovely lady.
Yayayayayay!!! Another interview!!! We ALL can use more cow bell! LOL ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Barbara was SO interesting and enjoyable!! I'm SO grateful for her cataloguing all these patterns in the way she did! For example how she did a pattern with 5 names. BRILLANT ! Her Encyclopedia is a TREASURE! I had to watch it twice to squeeze all the juice out of it I could. I can tell this'll be one I'll listen to again and again! I love her stories! I learned a lot! ❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️
Loved this interview! Barbara is such a wealth of information, thank you Karen for bringing her to us as well as the other wonderful people you have had on Quilt Circle !
I recently bought this book and it is magnificent! Now it is thrilling to hear it’s author talk about it. Thank you both, Karen and Barbara! Amazingly I have been quilting for 40 years this year. I began because I have always loved fabric and was tired of making garments. It was an immediate passion that stays with me today and gets me moving every day.
Karen, I love these quilt circle interviews! Barbara was correct- you have fantastic questions for all of your guests, which makes listening/watching so enjoyable. Kudos to you and thank you for bringing us this fantastic content!
Wonderful interview. I have some simple civil war blocks that I never felt inspired to assemble. I am going to finish this top now. Maybe not in a traditional way after listening to this interview.
I have Barbara Brackman's book of the Civil War quilt blocks. It's amazing! Very informative with the history of the blocks and a great story. I'd love to have her book of the pieced blocks.
I have a copy of the original version of this book! It is amazing- a true labor of love and essential for quilt appraisers and anyone who loves quilt history.
Thank you Karen. I did enjoy - I love reading Barbara Brackman's historical postings because they give so much insight. I have since purchased Civil War diaries that I have been enjoying - the people behind the quilts. And I enjoy seeing the way different people interpret colours for their blocks on the blog too. Super video. xxx
In speaking about the history of quilts, the focus is typically on America but I found it interesting that Jane Austen, her Mom, and sister stitched a beautiful ‘patchwork’ quilt in 1811 which is on display in Jane Austen’s house in Chawton, England.
I saw her book featured on The Quilt Show (I think). I was lucky enough to find a used older edition with the vinal overlays. Yeah Me. I refer to it often.
Such a wonderful session; thank you, Karen, for talking with BB. I got the older edition (used) of her Encyclopedia as a Cmas gift from my husband last yr with his apology for not having a lot ‘under the tree.’ I didn’t realize what an investment it was when I put it on the list! I am currently sewing along with BB’s “Hands All Around: The Alcotts at War” quilt blocks. I’m enjoying the layer of history she brings to the experience.
Thank you for this really interesting interview! It is nice to put a face to the name. I’ve got both her book and blockbase, it’s such a wonderful source of information.
A great interview with Barbara Brackman. I could have listened all day. I bet she has many interesting stories. I must try to find her book here in Australia .👍🇦🇺
If Barbara Brackman has a fan club, I’m at least the secretary! I gobble up everything she writes since I love history and of course quilting. Great interview!
A very interesting interview, however I want to add there is a very long and rich History of quilting going back almost to the beginning of our recorded history , the first recorded quilt may date back to as early as 3400BC in Egypt, then the 12th century in Europe there was quilted undergarments for under armour and the first actual recorded quilts works in Europe is around 1360AD in sicily, there is a Russian quilted carpet made from linen pieces. The history of quilts is something that fascinates me and there are some stunning examples of 17th century Welsh quilts in the Welsh quilt Centre. UK.
I did my first sew along using Civil War prints, loved the fabrics. I gravitate towards warm colours, so it turned out beautiful and enjoyed the experience. Thanks for sharing your interviews.👍❤️😊

That is very interesting!! Is he completely color blind or just certain colors? Does he give you great ideas on value? I'd love to hear more about y'all!! ❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️
@@rhondaschellin8878 red-green colour blindness isn't uncommon in men. Blue-yellow colour blindness is much rarer. 'Total' black-grey-white colour blindness (achromatopsia) is very rare (about 1 in 30,000 and is generally due to neurological damage
This was a very good interview. Karen you are great t asking the right questions and following the thread of interest. Thank you for doing these interviews. It’s helping me learn more about quilting.
Barbara made it to Japan for quilting. Does she know Kitty Pippen? Kitty was in the same quilt guild with me in Chico, CA when I lived there and she is amazing, as well.
I loved the interview! Thank you for asking such great questions. I've heard Barbara many times and I still learned some new things. I preordered my book, too, and got the first edition! I still hold onto the old one.
Great interview! I love reading all of Barbara's blogs and the quilt history perspectives she presents. Picked up the digital Encyclopedia this year as a companion to the EQ8 purchase I made last year!
