Here are some of the blocks to my first crazy quilt. I've decided that I want to make it a bed quilt instead of 2 separate wall hangings; there are 50 blocks so that's not an issue. I've already purchased a puffy poly batting for it and plan to tie it. I also want to decorate the seams with decorative stitches before I sandwich and tie it. The seams were pieced with Aurifil 50 wt. cotton thread and pressed open. My plan is to use Isacord 40 wt. thread on the top and Superior Bottom Line 60 wt. for the bobbin thread in a matching color. Can you give me your thoughts on this? Will it work or will it be too bulky on a tied quilt? I've never done this before and don't want to ruin it. Thanks for your input!
