I dropped the button box crazy quilt

I dropped the button box - crazy quilt block 11

If you have just landed in the middle of this site via a search engine these 6 inch blocks are from a crazy quilt. This crazy quilt is actually a Y2K quilt as it has 2001 different bits in it. At the time my definition of 'bits' was either a different fabric, lace, braid, charm, buttons or ribbon. I was a bit short on the number. 2001 different bits is much harder to have on hand than I realised but my button collection saved the day! Many of the blocks are online so that you can see them in detail.

if you are interested in combinations of stitches for seam embellishments on crazy quilting projects you might also enjoy some of the links under crazy quilting in the side bar and Crazy quilt Seam treatments which are diagrams for seam embellishments and as a reference you can use the Stitch Dictionary. You may enjoy another crazy quilt I am working on here . There are also other Crazy quilting projects on the site as well.
