I am thrilled and honored to
bring you my 3rd line of Civil
War-era reproduction fabrics
through Robert Kaufman
Fabrics.
The Grandpa's Journal
collection was inspired by my
maternal grandfather, Paul
Arthur Bischoff. Grandpa
served in the Navy for 8 years
and kept a journal during that
time. In later years he wrote
an autobiography, which is a
treasured family keepsake.
Grandpa was a HAM radio
operator, loved the Chicago
Cubs and enjoyed music.
I hope you enjoy creating beautiful projects using this new
collection. Creating Grandpa's Journal was a wonderful trip
down memory lane and I'm so happy to share it with you.
Julie, her husband Greg, and their many
pets live in rural southeast Iowa. Me &
My Stitches began there in 2009 when
Julie started making tiny quilt blocks
and turned them into jewelry. It wasn't
long and she turned her hobby into a
business, adding quilt patterns, ruler
boxes and other fun items.
In 2019 Julie joined Robert Kaufman
Fabrics and designed her first line
of Civil War-era reproduction fabrics. She draws
inspiration for her designs from her wealth of family
history and childhood memories.
