March's birthstone quilt block pattern and 11 piece fabric bundle is the soothing Aquamarine.

Known in ancient folklore as the treasure of mermaids, aquamarine harnesses the naturally soothing spirit of the ocean.

There are many myths and legends about aquamarine. Ancient Romans believed that carving the figure of a frog on an aquamarine would help to reconcile enemies and make them friends, and that aquamarine ensured sailors of a safe and prosperous passage across stormy seas. In Medieval times, the stone was thought to reawaken the love of married couples, and to render soldiers invincible. To the Sumerians, Egyptians, and Hebrews it was a symbol of happiness and everlasting youth, and at one time it was considered throughout Europe to be an antidote to poison!
