I often get asked how long does it take to make a quilt.  My answer is always-- "It Varies".  Sometimes I can complete a quilt in a week-end and others it takes months.  The quilts I am working on now falls into the months category. 

Crazy patch quilts take a long time to make because they consist of multiple fabrics, decorative stitches and construction.  To create the block, fabrics must be prepped, cut, ironed and sewn together.  Each block takes about 30 mins. just to sew together. That is roughly 8 hours to construct all the blocks for one quilt.  That is not including the time to prep, cut or embellish each block. 

The video is a mini tutorial of how one block is constructed.  (part 1)

Enjoy the process! 

Starting a new project for a customer. Making four memory quilts from her husband's  clothing. One quilt for each one of her children.  I always feel blessed making these types of quilts.  Really excited to begin.
