Happy New Year from Tennessee. I think a crazy quilt would be so much fun to make. I'm a hand quilter and love all the different decorative stitches and of course the little spiderwebs incorporated for good luck in the Victorian crazy quilts.

gold would be the perfect touch. We have a pioneer village in our town. On my run this afternoon we ran to it and in the weavers cottage they have a crazy quilt laying on one of the cots. It is in terrible need of repair. I almost cried. I haven't stopped thinking about it. I think I need to rescue it.

Such treasures should be 'taken care of' and 'passed on' just Pass it Forward... life is grand
