Crazy Quilting


Crazy quilting is done by stitching scraps of velvets, silks, satins, and
other fine fabrics onto a foundation fabric. The fabrics are various
shapes. The seams are then embellished with decorative stitches, often
done with decorative threads. This technique is popular and can be used
in wearable art, home decorator projects and more.
