Crazy quilt

Have you ever made a crazy quilt?  I've always been fascinated by them.  I love all the embroidery on them.
I've done some small ones,
but nothing like this!  One of our customers, Pat, brought this quilt and the Pineapple quilt
below in  to show us.  
Look at all the strips in this Pineapple Quilt!  Both of these quilts were done entirely by hand.

These quilts are very old, Pat thinks from 1880-1890, but are in great condition.
Thank you , Pat, for showing us these treasures!
