Contained Crazy Quilt

I love this contained crazy patchwork.  It was tied when I first found it.  I am not fond of tied quilts, and always want to remove the ties.   Which is what I did.  And boy am I glad I did.  Found a little secret right underneath one of the ties, what a wonderful surprise.  The blocks are all sewn onto a foundation. This one is on the list to hand quilt.

  2. Oh yes, the sashing looks so much nicer without the ties. I adore that Churn Dash block among all that beautiful craziness. A wonderful hand quilting project.
