Your quilt is very pretty and I love the crow feet stitching! Thanks for sharing. I'm thinking I may have to try the CF stitch now.

When you used the variegated thread, what needle did you use? I have not used that kind of crochet thread, but I assume it would take a bigger sewing needle?

THANK YOU!!!! Thimblebug your second post is the one I remembered. Very clear directions. The others provide very helpful info as well. I am making a quilt from men's deconstructed neckties and want to use this stitch to "quilt" it. Again, thank you!! I love this board!
