So... I was making these for a doll or (most ambitiously) a baby-sized quilt. But DH saw 'em and liked them so much he's requested a quilt for our King-sized bed with them. They're beautiful and fun, but made out of tiny crumbs and are each 4x4 unfinished.
If I take DH up on his request, it may take me 'till I die to finish this. LOL. Anybody have crumbs to spare? Just kidding. Unless you really do... then PM me! (Never hurts to put it out there, huh?) here's what I have so far [ATTACH=CONFIG]75691[/ATTACH] close-up of one block [ATTACH=CONFIG]75692[/ATTACH] |
Your crumb blocks are just darling!! :D I can see why your DH wants you to make a big quilt!! Have fun sewing lots more of them together!!
:D :D :D :D |
Enjoy,with crazy crumbs

looks good! crumb blocks are addicting- they are so much fun to make. I have a bunch of 7 1/2" blocks just waiting for me to put them together. I don't have a purpose for the,. Want them? You can cut them down and use the extra as starters for new blocks. There are 17 or 18 of them.

MegsAnn,
I like your crumb quilt!! I aways love anything scrappy. I have made a crumb quilt with this tuto. Let me show you, it is really easy and fast way. http://quiltingisstillmypassion.blog...-tutorial.html panda |
MegsAnn, I'm doing those crumb blocks too. They use up so much thread but I like doing them. They are great for those times when I want to sew but just have a short amount of time or I am too distracted to concentrate on other projects. I sit and sew these and it isn't a waste of time because they can be made into something beautiful. I do some blocks quilt-as-you-go and sometimes use them to practice free-motion quilting.
youme, thanks for the link to the tute...that's a good way to do the crumbs. |
MegsAnn Cute blocks - have you those of putting a sashing strip in so as to enlarge the quilt top without adding more blocks? Try putting a request for crumbs on the Classified section of QB.
PANDA - Love the TUT - crumb blocks are on my to do list *one of the days when I have nothing to do* - ROFLMAO!!! |
