Am I understanding right that your are relatively new at this? I haven't been doing it for long either, but have been preparing and collecting things for a long time, but you have given me so many more great ideas. Thanks for the beautiful website, too. I am really enjoying it. I love to look at the stitches that other people use and put them in my CQ's, too. It is so neat to build the stitches. I can't believe the great things I have seen people do on this board with such fantastic ideas and quality. Yours is one of the top quality.
Thanks again Eagle Hawk! Well i for one am shocked that you are new to crazy quilting! You would never know it from looking at your avatar. Yes, I am new to that and to quilting in general, but always wanted to try and have been going to shows and reading about quilting for 30 years.
I was surprised you crazy quilted a bag for a light board... this type of quilt seems more fragile to me and I had been dithering about whether it would make a good purse, so now I have my answer.
And yes! If you could share links to websites with the stitches used in Crazy Quilting I would be most grateful. :D
