All those words describe this quilt top. and, coincidence or not....they also describe me...the quilt maker. LOL
Making many of the same repetitive blocks for a quilt is sort of boring for me. i like different. so, i dumped out the black, red and purple scrap boxes and they became this.
These are larger scraps....anything smaller than a fat quarter. just different chunks.
I just started sewing them together....aiming for a piece that was at least 18" x 24"
Any size piece....any color. Once i got the 18x24" piece ... i cut it into a dozen 6" squares. sort of instant crazy quilt squares. then i pieced the 6" squares into 9 patches...then pieced the 9 patch blocks into rows ... 4x5.
When it got time for borders....it was also anything goes. no measuring....just cut and sew. different widths and different fabrics.
It is truly a crazy quilt....
Sewn by a crazy woman ..... pretending to be normal. hahahahahaha
Sometimes it works.
