ENCRUSTED ANYTHING GOES

The Encrusted “Anything Goes” round robin was a DYB, or Do Your Own Block.  Each participant completes one six inch block for the other participants (see previous DYB posts for further explanation).  The talented ladies participating in this 2010 round robin were:  Rita (Kansas, US), Ritva (Finland), Cathy L (Iowa, US), Wendy (Alabama, US), Gerry K (Washington, US)  and Lisa B (Arizona, US).

You ladies blow me away. The detail, the beautiful stitching, the colours, they are all incredible. Why don't they give out Olympic medals for Crazy Quilting??

I have been doing qc for awhile I have no training So I think I add too many big beads and charms. I made some I called art cards but lately I finish and put them in a basket and do nothing with them.Sure would be nice for you to check them out.Maybe I could email a picture Laura Q
