Crazy Patchwork

Such an interesting kind of needlework, like patchwork, allows you to create unusual and very beautiful things, sewing together small pieces of fabric.

A finished product can combine elements of completely different shapes, shades and textures. Often the details are stitched together in a certain order, creating a geometric ornament or a pre-conceived pattern. However, there is a Crazy Patchwork technique in which the fabric elements are sewn together in a chaotic manner.

If you have accumulated a large number of beautiful cloth shreds, of which you can not sew a full-fledged product, but throwing away your hand, the technique of patchwork crazy will come in handy. You can create a thoughtful composition, sketching out a scheme on paper, or to succumb to inspiration and arrange the elements without a certain order. In any case, patchwork in the style of crazy will allow you not only to get rid of the accumulated shreds, but also to create from them a truly unusual and unique thing.

Guided by the amount of material available, consider in advance what you will sew. It can be a blanket, a blanket, a tablecloth, an apron, a bag or even an article of clothing. In this master class, we will talk about how in the technique of crazy patchwork make a cute sofa cushion.
