    I made an unusal crazy quilt. I told my sister about a dream i had. We both belonged to an internet group and we would all meet up once a year. I dreamed one night that when I went to my mail box there were bits of lace, fabric, etc from all of the members of that internet group. I told my sister and
    she posted it on our forum. Soon my mail box had everything from hot pads, fabric, bandanas with Mickey and Minne Mouse, etc. I sat down and started putting all those items into a crazy quilt. It is not a thing of beauty, but it is cherished by many . I always take it with me when we have our get togethers.
    I would post a picture, but I have been having problems posting pictures. I will try again.

    I can not post a picture. I guess I just don't know how to do it.

    We did crazy quilts as a theme for the May 2012 Doll Quilt Swap. Take a look at the thread here.
