In the process of documenting the seam decorations on this quilt, as I get to each block I am diagramming it out for readers as a free crazy quilt pattern. Links to these free pattern pages are listed on the CQ details FAQ page.

  1. Hi Sharon, this documentation of this quilt is amazing and very comprensive, I just can’t wait for your course to begin, although I will be in the middle of shifting house, it will be a great distraction.

    Thank you so much for sharing.
