Her clear instructions and diagrams — along with modern, quick-and-easy piecing methods and valuable information on practical fabrics and padding — lead quilters through fourteen crazy quilt patchwork projects that are fast and fun.An introductory chapter offers "A Short Look at the Victorian Crazy Quilt," followed by sections on contemporary quilting and stitching methods. A final "project" section lets quilters select from a variety of items — pincushions, potholders, reversible toaster covers, lined shopping bags, Christmas wreaths and stockings, shirts, caftans, tablecloths — and, of course, a contemporary crazy quilt.
