I have another crazy quilt square to share with you today.
I started this one during the fall and was drawn to the colors of Autumn, unfortunately I can't seem to get the right colors in the photo. The colors are much prettier in person, warmer.
Here are a few sections close up.

The green thread is Up and Down Buttonhole.
Quarter Buttonhole Wheel with beads and a small grouping of buttons
The beautiful copper-ish brown fiber is a fiber I got in a swap. It's a rayon ribbon and I love it. It's holding down a brown ribbon and is decorated with small brown seed beads. The stitch is Herringbone. To the right is a little spray of buttonhole flowers and stem stitch with little white seed beads scattered about.
It's Spring now and my attention is drawn to the garden, so it looks like it will be a little longer before I finish my wall hanging, so close and yet, so far :) I hope you like my crazy quilt squares. Thanks for stopping by, I hope you've having a great Thursday!
Leslie: Those quilt squares are so lovely. I have a piece of a crazy quilt that someone gave me many years ago. It is not a finished quilt but I have it over a chair and it's covered with cat hair, as is most items in my Cottage. It is not as elaborate as yours, but now I realize what work goes into putting one together, I will take better care of it. I can't imagine doing all those intricate stitches. They are so beautiful and I look forward to seeing more..Happy Thursday..Judy
