Crazy Quilt Paper Piecing
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.

I didn't thing it was p&p. just go for it with all those very small pieces we throw away.

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

Thank you...this is just what I was looking for :thumbup:

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 ! ! !
Hope this is helpful . . . GP |

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?
