My goal is to have this piece finished this summer...some embelishments to go...border will be a black dupoini silk, with same as a backing. It will be a wall hanging...I typically like to name my projects, and I am thinking of Victorian Fantasy....
looking for your input, what do you think?

Jim's Gem 03-03-2011 11:10 AM

Beautiful!! Love all the different fabrics and stitches and stuff!

WOW that is fantastic. How many hours do you have in to it so far, any idea? I love it. Crazy quilts fascinate me. I made one from a book called, Crazy about (or with) Cotton, years ago, it was fun. I like the name you picked.

BJ SewKkrazzy 03-03-2011 11:16 AM

I started this quilt in Judith Baker Montano's Basic Crazy quilt class in May of 2007....been working on it off and on since, hours? don't know!

OMGosh! if you cant find a name I would take it off your hands! BEAUTIFUL!

clem55 03-03-2011 11:26 AM

beautiful

Tropical 03-03-2011 11:28 AM

I'm no help either with a name, but then how can you improve on perfection. The name and the wall hanging are just that. You included all of my favorite colors. I'm not usually drawn to crazy quilts because they appear too busy for me. I do believe you just changed my mind. :)

It is beautiful....Enchanted Garden

I am afraid that I would have to touch and feel it if I came to your home...

BrendaY 03-03-2011 12:16 PM

STUNNINGLY BEAUTIFUL!!! Wow, you've put so much fun into this piece! I would love to create something this lovely!

BJ SewKkrazzy 03-03-2011 12:20 PM

Brenda and Jackie,
Thanks for your comments, touching is allowed...and yes, I had great fun doing it! And still do! My goal is to enter it in the state fair this Sept.!

Beautiful, it must be lots of fun to make a creation like this. It reminds me of being a little kid & running your fingers through Mother's snippits of ribbon, lace & fancy buttons saved in a special drawer. Thank you for sharing your work.

BJ SewKkrazzy 03-03-2011 12:31 PM

Very good description!!!!!!!!! I use to have a calico cat like yours!

BJ SewKkrazzy 03-03-2011 12:32 PM

That is great, I was thinking wonderland garden but it doesn't quite work and then as I scrolled down I saw your idea and to me it fits perfectly!

cmagee84 03-03-2011 02:21 PM

Love it! I am working on a crazy patch quilt. Don't have any blocks together yet, just 7 that I am embellishing as I find time and inspiration. Thanks for inspiring me, now I know what I am going to work on tonight! :)

BJ SewKkrazzy 03-03-2011 02:29 PM

Sharing is for inspiration!!! Thanks for the wonderful suggestions...my hubby just came up with mystical gardens....

SuziC 03-03-2011 03:20 PM

That name fits perfectly!

coastienest 03-03-2011 03:27 PM

Oh my, the work in this quilt blows me away!!!

earthwalker 03-03-2011 03:29 PM

What a stunning piece this is. Seeing as Merlin is in there, how about "Merlin's Musings" or "The Musings of Merlin".

BJ SewKkrazzy 03-03-2011 05:36 PM

All your comments are appreciated! Merlin's musings, huh???
Not bad!

Lovely, the pansies are terrific.

Merlins Crazy Garden?

rgbear 03-04-2011 03:27 AM

Very Pretty

nantucketsue 03-04-2011 03:36 AM

The first thought was Fantasia, but even that doesn't do it justice. It is beautiful.

Yooper32 03-04-2011 04:59 AM

Wowee, is all I can say. That is one beautiful crazy quilt. I can't imagine the hours you have in that. I have maybe 7 blocks languishing somewhere and I need to get with them as time marches on and nobody else will finish them, I am sure.

TGood 03-04-2011 05:24 AM

How about Enchanted Fantasy?
