So sorry about your family member. Back in the late 50's my brother fell off of his bike and fractured his scull (no bike helmets back then). He almost died but he made a full recovery and is now in his 60's. Modern medicine has progressed since then so I hope everything will be OK!!

Started the 'crumbs' last night after getting home. I got 2 done.
This is exactly why I like making the crumb quilt squares....it is relaxing because you don't really have to think too hard while doing it. I haven't actually made a quilt with them, yet, but I've been having fun making lots and lots of crumb block squares.

Same block after trimming. The 'trimmings' go back in the pile to make more crumb blocks!
