Correct me if I am wrong, but I think that Bonnie Hunter of Quiltville coined the phrase "crumb" quilts. She used all those small odds and ends left over from cuts or even small blocks (ie HST's, 9P, or 4P and) and built a seemingly senseless (and mindless) block cut to a certain size. Then joining them together in random order.
