I have my baby quilt made for me by a very poor woman who was a neighbor of my grandmother. It was pieced crazy style with embroidery stitches. It’s humble and beautiful.

[@k3n.clothtales]

It sounds wonderful, what a treasure ❤️

Was just working on a crazy patchwork journal cover when I saw your video. I know all these stitches, but when working I tend to “draw a blank” and not be able to think of anything else to do. Thank you!

[@k3n.clothtales]

I am so pleased it's useful Betty, a crazy patchwork journal sounds wonderful ❤️

[@dailydoseofpaper]

I love all these stitches! I did not know the Chevron, Web and Cretan stitch yet so thank you! I have absolutely fallen crazy in love with stitching (mostly due to your videos) so I think crazy patchwork is definitely what I need!! Have a lovely weekend Kathryn, you must be incredibly busy so I hope you get to enjoy your terrace a little as well🍀💝

[@k3n.clothtales]

Thank you Machteld, it's really cold here today so staying indoors stitching ❤️

Love the featherstitch. It actually reminds me of sea coral.

[@k3n.clothtales]

I have done only feather stitch over one of my eco blocks and made it look like a rambler rose. It's a beautiful, versatile stitch and I need to use it more often 😁❤️

[@sabinebine5282]

Vielen lieben Dank ❤ Ich muss immer kurz überlegen wie der Stich auf deutsch heißt 😀 Und manche kannte ich nicht, sehr interessant. Und du zeigst und erklärst das super. 👍

[@k3n.clothtales]

This is great k3n!!! Been embroidering for years, but never tackled some of the stitches, and your instructions are so simple that I am going to give it a go! Thank you so much!👏🏻👏🏻❤

You are so welcome! 🤗

[@annietwemlow9967]

Oh this brings back memories of stitching blue pattern tray cloths with my grandmother. I’ve just reignited my desire to stitch after many, many years and thanks to you I feel so much more confident with it. I really wanted to stitch a crazy knee quilt, how did you know? 😂

[@k3n.clothtales]

❤ I especially like how you show the cobweb stitching. I thought the blanket stitch would work for spider webs, but your example has a finer, more delicate look 👍🏻

[@avigayillandsman1498]

🎉 belated birthday blessings to you, dear K3N! You have opened up new realms of possibilities for my mending practice, and I have dared to venture into some of your projects. I have had clothes needing mending, but I couldn’t figure out what to do with them until I started watching you. I am very grateful for your knowledge you’re wit and your concern for your words. I enjoy your English sayings and your recommendation for the book the pocket, which I have purchased to read and share with a quilting friend of mine.

What a lovely surprise to see one of your videos today 😃! I do most of those stitches, some I like more than others, of course, but I didn’t know that one in the end and as I am not arachnophobic (on the contrary, I love spiders 🤭), I fell in love with it! I am surely going to do it. I’m even imagining, as you said, a little spider on it 🕷️🕸️ Have a wonderful weekend ♥️💙💛🤎🩷🧡🩵💚💜🤍❤️

Thank you so much for this lesson !! I can't wait for the next two videos. I love making crazy patchwork quilts but have never put embroidery stitches on them. I have a crazy patchwork quilt that my grandmother made for me and it is done with the fly stitch...I always called it the chicken foot stitch. 😅

Terrific Kathryn. I've worked backwards from Crazy Patchwork 2 to 1 to this one. I didn't think I would be interested, but of course after seeing so many other people's wonderful interpretations I'm definitely giving it a go. I used to love my Mum's half-finished embroidery pieces on printed cloth. I still have them.

Hello ❤from Beautiful British Columbia Canada 🇨🇦 I always thought that my grandma's feather stitching looked like litte branches crossing the seams. It looked like she used crochet cotton . We were always fascinated when we received a box (she lived in Northern Saskatchewan) Crazy quilt throws, quilts, socks and mittens usually Christmas. My first quilt was for a junior size bed that my dad had made.. there was a crib quilt for my younger sister. These ones had wool batting. Possibly 1959 .)
