Crazy Quilt

I just have to share this eye candy with you all.  This quilt doesn’t belong to me, but that didn’t stop me from photographing it.  The quilt belongs to my son-in-law and was created by his paternal grandmother.

Seems to me this kind of handwork just isn’t done, or seen, too much any more.  I’ve made a few simple quilts in my time, but nothing as intricate as piecing all of these fabrics together.  I *love* this quilt!IMG_6825-1

Some close up shots of various parts of the quilt. Note how the teensiest, tiniest pieces of fabric did not go to waste.IMG_6822

The binding was even sewn on by hand. :)
