crazy quilt block
 

I've tried doing crazy quilt blocks before, but just couldn't get it right, so decided to try again. I have so many strings that I'm trying to use them up and needed a different pattern to do, so thought I would try a crazy quilt. Does this look right to you? Most of the strings are same size. Does this matter? This was just a practice piece, even got one piece wrong side out. I do think I have learned one thing though; I really don't like doing crazy quilt blocks. LOL. But, I had to try.

I think it looks absolutely wonderful!!!
One of the things I like best about crazy patch quilts is the no rules approach. :)

I bought some creative grids templates for Christmas that make it more uniform if you want more uniformity made easy. But I think you've made a lovely block. :)

great block will make a wonderful quilt when you are done.

That definitely says "crazy block". Nicely done.

I love it. I have a plastic template that I made some crazy quilt blocks for a friend that had embroidered small pieces and put the crazy quilt pieces around the embroidered piece. Turned out very nice even if I say so myself. Your block is great I think.

Yes, I agree great block, maybe the process will grow on you.

Nice way to use up scraps!

Yes, that is the technique. You would see more variation if the pieces were not rectangular. Try some more triangular pieces.

I do lots of "sew and flip" blocks with novelty focus fabrics in the center, keeping somewhat with the color scheme in the focus fabric. I enjoy making them, and it does use up a little bit of scraps.

Looks great to me...Jenny's MSQC tutorial uses same 2 1/2 width strips thru-out, I think. It's been awhile since I watched that tutorial. Great job...

Great way to use scraps. Looks good to me. BrendaK
