Hello and Welcome to the
If you have never been here before,
or you are one of my old friends,
Welcome to my blog
Sew Incredibly Crazy.
My name is Amy.
I never knew how fitting that
blog name would be when I
chose it 6 years ago.
I really love to create.
I started quilting on a whim.
I entered a contest that Moda
was having and I happened on
being in the top 10.
This jolted me into quilting.
I have never taken a quilting/sewing class
in my life unless you count 6th grade
Home Ec. Which I just found out
from my quilting friends is just odd.
(Hence the blog name)
I have created a number of items in
the past 6 years, but my absolute favorite has
been this one.
It is called Nutty Christmas.
It was designed and sewn by yours truly
and quilted by the super talented Jeanette Parker.
You can find the pattern to the quilt Here.
The reason I chose this quilt is because,
it makes me feel like I am truly a quilt designer.
I never had that feeling until I created this cutie.
The inspiration came from my children who
just love nutcrackers.
Only problem is, I will have to make
a couple more of these so each of us can have
one to enjoy.
They have a tendency to claim everything
I make.
My favorite technique is applique.
Here are just a few of my other quilts.
I am also a Thermoweb designer,
which I love. They are always so very good
to their designers. Here is a
leaf garland that is a free project I
created over at Thermoweb.
I am also an Island Batik Ambassador,
This is my first year creating with them,
and it has been an absolute pleasure.
One project that I took on three years ago was
to have a Block of the Month.
A couple designer and I
have had themes of - In Our Garden,
Sun, Sand, and Sea, and this year is
I absolutely love being able to work
with such talented ladies that
push me to be a better designer and
are women that I get to call my friends.
If you are new, feel free to stop and
check out some more of my blog.
You can also find me on

I also sell my patterns on
Etsy.

ReplyDeleteWhat cute quilts!! Nice to meet you
ReplyDeleteLovely quilts. I'm a fusible-web appliquer, too. (And I've bought library furniture from Scott, who helped invent Heat 'n' Bond. :)) If my junior high home ec experience were all I had to go on I would neither cook nor sew. Fortunately I got over the trauma of those courses and enjoy both activities tremendously.
ReplyDeleteMarvelous quilts, the Nutty Christmas one is so cute! Visiting from the Meet and Greet.
ReplyDeleteYour Nutcracker quilt is great!!
