CQ Detail 8

Stitches:
This detail is a variation of feather stitch which is many crazy quilters favourite. The ends of the spines have been decorated with beads.
Thread:
I received this thread in a swap and I don’t know what it is but it is a thread that is braided rather than twisted.
Placement:
This seam is between piece 3 and piece 4 on block 2
Foundation Fabrics
The fabrics used in block 2 have been discussed in this post
The back story
This is a crazy quilt block which is part of my “I dropped the Button box” quilt. I am documenting this crazy quilt detail by detail, and posting about it on this blog every second day. You will find information about this series of articles and the quilt here.
If you are looking for the series you will find it under the category of Crazy Quilt details.
Classes
I also offer a class which covers not only technique but design issues associated with this style of quilting. Encrusted Crazy Quilting will start on Feb 25th 2009.
If you have not taken a class online before this is How classes work
