Cotton Crazy Quilt Wall Hanging
I adore Crazy Quilts.
They are just like people...
Every part of them is random, scrappy,
not perfect, colorful, "mix-matched"
and yet when it all comes together,
it is a beautiful treasure.
I thought I would try to carry the Crazy Quilt concept
over to Punchneedle. I think I have it.
(and even if I don't, it was fun trying !)
(and even if I don't, it was fun trying !)
A fun and lighthearted piece to create...
Strawberries, bumble bees, climbing vines,
lazy cats, Spring blooms and "embroidered seams"
in Punch Needle Embroidery.
Enjoy your Friday !

What a wonderful idea, and I bet it was fun. I love crazy quilts too. I have never made one but I have thought about it time and time again.
ReplyDeleteOne of my book club ladies has the most stunning one made of velvet her mother in law made. It hangs in her living room. I just stand and stare at it. I love your wall hanging.
Oh MY! You always come up with such unique projects - I love it!
ReplyDeleteI like crazy quilts too and always admired all the neat stitches on them. Looking forward to seeing your needlepunch crazy quilt style too. Oh, luv your wool strawberries.

Very clever idear! I love it! :-)
ReplyDeleteCrazy quilts have always been a favorite of mine....love your comparison!
ReplyDeleteTransferring the Crazy Quilt concept to needle punch is brilliant. I have seen some outstanding Crazy Quilt examples, mostly Vintage, that are amazing works of art. One of these days i will return to working on mine. Since I am on my way to Vintage I better get a move on! Thanks for sharing your amazing talent Rose, you always brighten my day!
ReplyDeleteYour crazy quilt is stunning, I zoomed in an read all the quotes on it.
ReplyDeleteI have always admired the stitches and time put into making one of them.
It's on my bucket list.
Also loving your punch needle pattern of a crazy quilt concept..
I've always wanted to make a crazy quilt...it's on my to do list. As always,,,,enjoy seeing your work...it's always so inspiring Rose!
ReplyDeleteOh Rose...do stop by and link this post up at my Tuesday Archives Linky next Tue (May 27th) as one of the themes is: CRAZY QUILTS!!!!
DeleteI love crazy quilts and now that I love wool too, you've reminded I've got another notch to put on the "To Do" list -- a wool crazy! Also can you tell me -- on the wool crazy pillow, was the stitching done by machine and what weight thread was used?
