Mary Chalmers of Alexandria, MN made two fabulous crazy quilts. Amazing work. Above is Crazy with a Twist which won first place for traditional quilts. We are crazy about her twist!
Here is a close-up for you to drool over!
Check out Lisa Bongean's blog for a much better picture of In Praise of Wool. What an artist!
Blogger is giving me grief loading photos today, so I will close for now. I know that Mrs. Goodneedle posted photos from Mid-Atlantic also, so check out her blog, From the Strawberry Patch.
More later!

Very Marcie, indeed. Actually I thought it was perhaps one of your new patterns *s*
Thanks for sharing these - those crazy quilts are fantastic! Need to wipe the drool off my keyboard - LOL!
I love the cheddar border quilt - very me as well :0) Thanks for sharing!
What beautiful quilts! I think I could look at that crazy quilt all day long - so many beautiful stitches!
Love them both, but 'Crazy With a Twist' is more me. Wait, I'd have to call mine 'Twisted by the Crazies'...no wonder I love my vintage crazy quilt pieces so much! They speak to me, and to my life ;)
Thanks for showing these quilts from the show. I love the cheddar in the border of the first one.
Your quilts are so lovely! :)
