About the Book

Cross traditional crazy quilting with favorite pieced quilt patterns and today's machine quilting methods, and what do you get? Crazy fun for all kinds of quilters, even those who don't like handwork. Allie Aller and Valerie Bothell's guide offers an exuberant mixture of vintage and modern, hand and machine work, and clever ways to make traditional quilts a little crazy. Includes 10 projects in sizes from small wall hangings to bed quilts; photo instructions for 15 crazy quilt and silk ribbon embroidery stitches; and tips for combining crazy quilting with machine piecing and embroidery.

About the Author :
Allie Aller, author of the best-selling Allie Aller's Crazy Quilting, has been a fiber girl all her life. Crazy quilting took over her life in 2001 and has brought her immense joy. She lives in Washington. Valerie Bothell is a long-time teacher of crazy quilting who always looks forward to every opportunity to share her love of crazy quilting.

Review :
Aller (Allie Aller's Crazy Quilting), a Washington state quilter, and Bothell, a Kansas crazy-quilting teacher, endeavor to marry old traditions of crazy quilting with today's technology "to show that crazy quilts can be functional." The result is a smashing success with equal parts fun and function, serious instruction, and delighted execution. Techniques outnumber projects three to one. In other words, Aller and Bothell put most of their energy on the how versus the what. Preceding the projects are general instructions: for piecing, including crazy-quilt blocks and borders and Judith Baker Montano's fan methods; for appliquéing using freezer-paper or card stock templates; and for interfacing, which is especially important on wall hangings. After pieces become blocks, embroidery begins, whether by hand or machine. The authors offer ideas on designs and transfers; on needles, tension, and thread weight; and on stitches, from feather to Cretan to blanket. To illustrate the construction, they pull from the 10 projects (some with patterns), including Bothell's "Oriental Garden" and Aller's "Morning Chores" with its dairy feed sack center. --Publishers Weekly
