CQ Detail 149

The detail:

This seam runs across the top right hand corner of the block between pieces 1,2 and 3 and piece 6 on block 23 of the “I dropped the button box” quilt.

The arches are worked in chain stitch using perle 5 thread. The black straight stitches are worked in rayon ribbon floss. Long bugle beads and seed beads finish the pattern.

Free Crazy quilt block patterns
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.
