    Thank all of you for your kind comments. The Crazy Eight quilt is my 3rd quilt to do. The other 2 need the backs put on, I chose this one to finish because the other 2 are larger and I needed to practice on putting the backs on....I can do the tops until the cows come home I have a really hard time doing the backs. Probably because I have instructions for the fronts and I have to figure out the backs on my own which is really hard for me to do...I am such and insturctional person. I know I am making the backs harder then they are...but I have only been quilting since Sept. 2010.....but I have been sewing for over 25 years mostly crafty things.

    Again Thank You ALL for your comments.
    Have a Wonderful weekend.

    If you are looking for the Crazy Eights pattern and can't find it at your local Quilt Shop, you can find it online at

    Great quilt, I think I really like the zigzag. I am going to have to stare at it some more.

    Thanks for looking.
    Why would you not zig zag around each square again.......does it take a lot longer to quilt it that way? I really like it and was considering doing that. Pat
