Crazy patchwork was popular in Victorian times as a way of using even the tiniest scraps of fabric. Pieced together in a haphazard way to make fit, various fancy stitches would then be applied over the overlapping edges. Sometimes lace, buttons, charms, beads & even fancy buckles would also be added....... and now for the miniature collector..... I introduce to you a collection of Miniature 'Crazy Patchwork' cushions......Pictured here on a 12th scale double bed, my first collection of crazy patchwork cushions. One of a kind original hand pieced with tiny silk patches & embroidered entirely by hand. The heart pillow is SOLD
