I have taken my bin of scraps this weekend and started making crumb blocks. You start with 2 small pieces of fabric and keep adding to them. I have made mine into 6" blocks. So far 46 blocks and I have another 50 or so started. Just minless sewing and using scraps. I was tired of cutting squares so decided to give this a try. It is addiciting. something to do with your scraps besides squares. I will use mine for a scrap quilt or donate them to our guild for making charity quilts with. You could just add a sashing aorund them to make the blocks bigger and to break up all the mixed up colors. Kind of like a crazy patchwork effect. doesn't look like I have even touched that bin of scraps yet but I have blocks to show for the work I have done.
