I have always wanted to make one out of thick tapestry velvets, but I never had found the right tutorial to help me understand exactly how these quilts are put together. I recently found this crazy quilt video tutorial by Knots & Kneedles, on YouTube, and I knew I had finally found the right crazy quilt tutorial for my needs and skill level.
