Does this remind you of peacock feathers or what!
Today's crazyquilt detail is another of my Fractal designs for the purpose of creating your own fabric sheets.
Again, you can use these not only for crazyquilting but also for greeting cards, memory albums, scrapbooking and altered art.

Fish Under The Sea Block
I just started on this block which will have a "Fish Under The Sea" theme.
I have absolutely no clue where I'm going with this piece and am feeling quite challenged at the moment. I have a ton of pretty little fish beads and charms, i have all sorts of small sea shells (I'll need Scott to drill some holes in them for me) and that's all I know about what I'm doing!
I wanted to cover the seams but only did a simple feather stitch on each seam using a thread color as close to the fabric as I could. The blue fabric at the top is one of my painted dryer sheets.
I'm off to figure out where I want to go with this. I should have more to share tomorrow.

100 Details In 100 Days - Day 63
I thought I would give you a little something different to work with for a few days. Today's crazyquilt detail is for the purpose of making your own fabric.
You'll need commercial inkjet fabric sheets, transfer sheets or another method of transferring images to fabric. I use inkjet fabric sheets. They're quick and easy.
The designs I'll be offering over the next few days are called Fractals. I have special software to do these and I add other special effects filters to give them alot of depth and dimension.
Once you've transferred these to fabric, you can work them into your crazyquilts with other fabrics.
They can also be used for greeting cards, scrapbooking, memory albums, altered books and other altered art. The possibilities are endless!
Have fun with these! I'd love to see photos of any of my designs if and when you use them.
