Does anyone know where I can find paper piecing for a small 24x24, 18x 24 etc. doll size quilt for the Crazy Quilt?

I have never thought to do it by PP. The first one I did was foundation pieced but after that I just prepared my fabric with spray starch or Best Press and sewed the pieces together and kept going. You can always cut up a larger area into a few blocks so it doesn't look repetitive.

Go to YouTube. All kinds of tutorials for Crazy Quilts. Many are paper pieced. it's easy peezy. Just make your own starting piece. That is one of the first quilts I made for my sister for her first Cabbage Patch doll. I just stitched it all together (didn't really know what I was doing back then). Found some ruffles from an old dress she had and was just enough to use as a border.

Paste pintangle.com/cq-details into your address box. You'll find approximately 67 - 6" (& some are a bit smaller) crazy quilt blocks. This Crazy Quilter goes insanely in depth with her embellishments - which are absolutely gorgeous. This project is defintely on my bucket list ! ! !

The blocks are 6 inch, but you could reduce them to the size you want. Have fun!

Thank you, I am trying to download a few of the patterns, but the size comes out 4.5x 4.25. when I resize it using word for the 6.5x 6.5 it still comes out whacky...any ideas?
