Crazy quilting is often referred to as crazy patchwork where quilting does not conform to any specific pattern. It is a kind of pattern where pieces are not cut into specific sizes but are rather sewn together at will. Crazy quilts very rarely come with internal layer of batting, which usually is the chief component of the other varieties of quilts. Usually, haphazard patterns are designed in crazy quilting on a foundation. The foundation can be made of cloth, paper or any other type of fabric. To compensate for the lack of symmetry and set patterns, crazy quilters make full use of their creative side by adding unconventional luxuries on the quilts like buttons, laces and other trimmings. Many crazy quilts are also decked with rich embroidery and unsophisticated, innocent designs. Crazy quilting is a very old type of quilting that dates back further than 1880's. Usually, this type of quilting made use of old discarded fabrics that were tucked trimmed and otherwise changed to form a new quilt altogether, this tradition has differed very little even today.
