    Sue, I love your quilt and I am inspired...it will give me a place to use the tiny bits of favorite lace and beads that I just can't throw away. What part is tatted?

    Wow! That is going to be the most beautiful crazy quilt. I love the colors; they give the blocks such a dainty look.

    Your quilt is absolutely stunning. I've been wanting to do a crazy quilt but haven't figured out how or where to begin other thana bunch of scraps but I love yours. My scraps just won't look that nice now after seeing yours as I prefer your colors over what's in my scrap containter. I'm in awe!

    It is beautiful. Now I can't wait to start collecting the material and lace to make one. What an inspiration. I am not great at embroidery, but get by.

    You did a fantastic job!

    Can't wait to see the finished job. Please don't let it take so long!:)

    I can't wait!

    Keep up the wonderful work and thanks for sharing! :) :)
    My sewing machines has many of these pretty stitches built in and when/if/when I do one of these quilts, I plan to use the pretty stitches included on it to save time.

    Is it quilted? Are you quilting as you go, doing all of this fance work on a sandwiched block? Just curious. Sorry if the question is dumb but everything I've read on doing these quilts has been to work on a sandwich and sew together later. Yours looks so flat and smooth like maybe you are working on a assembling the top only and will sandwhich later; hence the question. Thank you. I love, love, love this gorgeous quilt
