Since there is no embroidery, beading, or lace added, I would consider your jackets<br />Crazy-Pieced but not CQ'd. IMHO, that is. Whatever you call them, your jackets are unique!<br />I love Karen's work, and, happily, I won a piece of her 'paper works'!Suztatshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/15703965965474209546noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-24429902.post-47509807895410302062011-08-18T00:00:59.957-04:002011-08-18T00:00:59.957-04:00I saw a photo once of a simple CQ blanket... one s...I saw a photo once of a simple CQ blanket... one stitch in one color of thread used on the whole thing. I thought it was stunning and some day want to do that... when I don't have a million other projects going on. Lol.<br /><br />You decorate your patchwork denim seams, then embellish with other things... isn't that the definition of CQ? Just because it isn't done with fancy fabrics or threads or embellishments doesn't mean it's any less CQ. Just my thoughts :)Anonymoushttps://www.blogger.com/profile/06065601240705775321noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-24429902.post-65646203537257764422011-08-17T22:20:53.635-04:002011-08-17T22:20:53.635-04:00Crazy patch instead of crazy quilt..since they are...Crazy patch instead of crazy quilt..since they are not quilts?

Such fine detail with a fresh look. You are right about Avery's blog what cute button collages she creates and sells in her etsy shop.<br />Now to the jacket. Definately crazy pieced. But, I am not sure that it is the surface decoration that makes it a crazy quilt.<br />The following is copied from Wikipedia,<br />The term "crazy quilting" is often used to refer to the textile art of crazy patchwork and is sometimes used interchangeably with that term. Crazy quilting does not actually refer to a specific kind of quilting (the needlework which binds two or more layers of fabric together), but a specific kind of patchwork. Crazy quilts rarely have the internal layer of batting that is part of what defines quilting as a textile technique.<br />So, according to Wikipedia, I'd say, "Girlie, you gotta a crazy quilt there!"<br />DebMosaic Magpiehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08715004978582753127noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-24429902.post-42835697821614091302011-08-17T19:31:37.875-04:002011-08-17T19:31:37.875-04:00Aw what a beautiful bear - she's so clever and...Aw what a beautiful bear - she's so clever and the wee tags attached are sweet too.<br /><br />I'm off to visit her blog - Thanks Maryann for the link.<br />Hugs<br />Shane :))Shane Pollardhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/06674612132049839026noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-24429902.post-26794237353032981532011-08-17T18:22:25.404-04:002011-08-17T18:22:25.404-04:00I think they are, but as I'm not an expert, I ...I think they are, but as I'm not an expert, I googled a definition. I found many references which defined crazy quilting as "irregular shaped fabric pieces stitched to a foundation fabric and then decorated" and "a method of stitching irregular and random pieces of fabric (to form a quilt) many have decorative stitches added to the seams" <br /><br />Sounds just like what you're doing, but also one the original intention of crazy quilting was for scraps to be used and quilted together however it pleased the maker. <br /><br />Your vests look great...NanetteAnonymousnoreply@blogger.com
