I used the Quilt Index search function to find my crazy quilt inspiration. From there I navigated over to alphabet quilts. Documented by the Kentucky Quilt Project Anna Marie Schmidt Steinbock 1876-1900 stitched family names on her crazy quilt scraps. With modern tools I added stitching and words onto my crazy background.
