I have some scraps, so this next mailing time/swap time is for bags of scraps correct? I can fill easily a priority mail envelope without any trouble. Will do. Put me in on this one again. Thank you. I am in the process of collecting up more sewing items in a box for the beginning of July swap as well.
As for the crazy quilt. In the early 1400s and such, they used all sorts of fabrics and embellishments for their crazy quilts. That is where the traditional way of doing a crazy started. It is what they had in abundance and the more elaborate the more prominent you were. I personally enjoy my all cotton crazy quilts with a muslin foundation. I like how they wear better. So to answer your question as stated by others, it is your choice on what you want to do. If you are not going to use it very much, then do the fancy with embellishments. If going to use, then do the all cottong without the extra embellishments.
