ok.. so it WAS just a square that you added "strips" of fabric on to till the square was filled, right?... That's why I LOVE Crazy quilts.. they are soooo random. You don't do the same thing all the time.. you can cut pieces, sew pieces or go back & embellish the blocks that are finished.. and then... start on some more LOL. I was so pleased with the one I did a few yrs ago.. I do have to figure how to post a picture & send it for all to view.. and there is also a pretty neat story behind it.
