Thanks everyone. What i've been doing is this. I've been working on a huge queensize hd raffle quilt, and i keep my crumb blocks right beside the machine. When i get tired sewing my regular blocks, i just do a couple crumb blocks, but the problem is, i tell myself i'm just gonna do one crumb block, then get back to the quilt im SPOSED to be working on lol, but they're so addictive i can't stop at ONE! lol The tilted log cabins are easy. Start with a centre crumb, and then log cabin around it once. Then for each of your rows after that, you do tilted log cabins, when you lay your strip on the fabric, one end of your strip is where it belongs, but the other end, tilt it down bout a half inch, and keep doing them like that. I have lots of leftover strips from rotary cutting, and so it's easy.

PS Yes, Izy has a wonderful tute in the tutorial section :)
