Modern Crazy Quilt
I’ve been working on another crazy quilt for the last few weeks, and am super excited to say that the top is done. After the first one I said I’d never make another because it takes so long to put together, and can sometimes be really frustrating. However, when my box of scraps got full…

Over the last few weeks, the weather has been pretty nice most of the time, so I’ve not spent a lot of time inside the house crafting. If it was a sunny 82 degrees at your house, you wouldn’t either. But don’t worry, I have been working on a couple of projects. I’ve done a…
