Hi all,
I've noticed that in crazy quilting the stitches are varied & elaborate - would it be possible to use a larger running stitch to quilt with? I know that would mean that my stitches would show, & it's not usually the way things are done, but I'm not one for sticking to the rules lol, unless there's a specific technical reason. Kata Golda did it with hand-stitched felt, so I figured why not quilting? This way I could get started by hand & I may be able to do some stitching with my eyes closed just like I do with my knitting. It'll all be imperfect, but isn't that half the fun of handmade crafts? What do you think?
