A Quilters Paradise

Even though I have for years been obsessed with the colors, textures, and patterns of fabric, I just started sewing a few months ago for the first time since 7th grade!

I love bidding on quilting squares from eBay for my patchwork projects and mixed media art and wanted to share my passion for the tiny little patches with you!

If you are a quilter, like to alter clothing to suit your own style, or simply love fabric like I do, you will love looking at all the vibrant crazy quilt fabrics featured here!

Besides eBay auction bidding, you will also find inspiring images of quilts from flickr, titles to learn quilting techniques or find inspiration, and a fun poll to interact with other fabric artists.

Enjoy!

Great lens. I love quilting. I do crazy quilting, (embroidery & beadwork on velvet and silk) because I'm an embroiderer first and a quilter later. Also, I like crazy quilting because there are no squares to cut, so I can use all the left over scraps from sewing my costumes and turn them into quilts, that way no fabric ever gets wasted.
