Does this make sense? |

Yes I went to your site they are all amazing to me. I am fascinated by crazy quilts .. I have one block started just the material sewed to the muslin (sp) I am using blue jean centers and other materials around it... not near as fancy as yours. But my twist to them. I have not gotten to the fancy stitches around the seams by any means. But you do inspire me.

The beauty of Crazy Quilts....there is no wrong way to do them...there are no mistakes, there are no do overs...each is expressive in its own right!!!
|
I love your crazy quilting very Victorian looking and feminine reminds me of ladies walking down the streets in long dresses carrying parasols.
|
