This project edges toward “crazy” quilting which were very popular in the late 1800s and are an icon of the Victorian era. The last couple of years crazy quilts have had a resurgence with the “2020 Crazy Quilt Challenge”. According to the challenge guidelines, you are to create a crazy quilt with 2,020 items. To my eye this is far too much but I like the more understated crazy quilts.

My new project is to create a quilt like the picture below. I love the vivid colors and look forward to using some of the decorative machine stitches I have. Jennie at Missouri Star Quilt Company has a tutorial on this quilt which you might like to watch.
