    Donna Jean, "Do you mean are we crazy or do we make crazy quilts? Some would think we are crazy for cutting up fabric into little pieces just to sew them back together again."


    You gals ALWAYS get me laughing!

    It is on my "to do" list. Now I just have to live to 150 to complete everything.

    K.P. I really like your red crazy quilt. Beautiful color and the diagonal setting. I'm making one with 17 shades of green and beige for GS.

    I started my first Crazy Quilt last Oct. for myself and I'm still not done it's going to be a king size. but I haven't been able to climb stairs for awhole has I had a knee replaced in Nov. last year and then broke that same foot going thru therapy and then I had selective surgery on my right foot in July just got the cast off,but anhow after all that I have a question for the crazy quilters is it better to frame the blocks or just put them together,It's actually a stack-n-whack multi colored. sorry this is so long but i hoping to get back to working on it in the next few weeks.

    Now that is really Beautiful. I love the red. How big are your squares? How many did you use?
    That is just lovely.

    Like everything else, I have purchased the fabrics to make a crazy quilt - but I've yet to start. My favorite quilting friend does crazy quilts 24/7 and they're beyond beautiful. I couldn't come close. I admire anybody with such patience.
