Crazy quilts have been around for years. Traditionally they are made from luxurious fabrics and decorated with elaborate hands embroidery stitches. Today however we have wonderful embroidery machines to do the work for us. And with our busy lives, that is a good thing.
Crazy quilts are also very popular, because anyone can make one. Sewing random pieces of fabric together does not take a lot of precise cutting or measuring. That is one of the reasons for their popularity. The other may be because we have all these stitches in our machines, why not show them off!
