Winter/Christmas Crazy Quilt Progress July 2020


Hi all! My goal in January was to finish quilting the borders of my Winter/Christmas Crazy Quilt with snowflakes.

As much as I love the way the snowflakes look, stitching them became a chore.  So, I have been procrastinating.

The photo above shows how it looked on January 1st.

The blocks were embellished in a crazy quilting round robin that began in 2013 and ended in 2014. It is definitely time to finish this project up!

In February, I added a couple of small snowflakes. This month, I finished embroidering about half of the strip in the center (with the waste canvas) and center strip on the far right. 

I still need to add beads to most of these snowflakes.

There are several small Christmas projects I am itching to work on, but I am determined to finish this project first. I hope to have far more progress to share in August!

Happy crafting everyone!

Sorry for the delay in commenting on your lovely crazy quilt. I really want to make one with old pieces of family embroideries that need saving.
