Crazy Quilt Pillow

Another crazy quilt project, this grew up to fill a pillow's shoes. Added a bit of embellishment, but nothing like some of the works of art out there on the 'net. The Yo-yo edge was blanket stitched and then a bit of thread crochet edging. Just your basic ch3 and ss or sc. I do these yo-yos alot when I am 'watching' TV. I'll do a tutorial on them soon. Very easy but some may not know how. :D



I'll link a crazy quilt tutorial I love again, in case you missed it.

Dresden Heart, Pieced Applique.

Ornaments very dear to me. Four generations worth.



Fatcat's Dresden heart pattern

I substituted a button & yo-yo for the center, and doubled my work again. Needleturn first followed by blanket stitch and now that I feel my blanket stitch is looking reasonably even, I may try and do both in one step next time. ;)

Paper Pieced quilt block

I have done paper piecing in the past, and was very pleased with the outcome here. One block of paper piecing a year is enough for me. I jut don't have the discipline required. :(

But I have the link to credit the pattern!!!!!!! (Was filed under button suppliers :S)
