Country Hearts 1


Quilt Documentation # 131

Country Hearts 1

This quilt was made using Karla Alexander's pattern Crazy Hearts from her book "Stack The Deck!  Crazy Quilts in 4 Easy Steps".

I like this method of making crazy patch. Stack, slice, shuffle and sew.

The purple and red hearts were machine appliqued using a blanket stitch.

I quilted the top using a variegated thread in spiral and stipple design.

The binding was made up of strips of the crazy patch fabrics sewed together and the back is one of my hand dyed muslin.
