I love crazy quilts and never thought of them as being perfect, that is the charm. Most people made them from old clothes and used scraps, so that is what made them crazy quilts. My grandmother used to make them from my grandfather's old wool pants, wish I had one of them.
Are there any circumstances under which sewn pieces of fabric are just that or do we have a quilt classification for everything? Also are crazy quilts a classification ie are they in a juried group at shows and if so, what on earth is being evaluated? Thanks and love your blog
