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 yet but I've been having fun making lots and lots of crumb block squares.
I love your blocks in the crazy patch technique. It has wonderul fabrics and colors-yum! I consider crumb quilts slightly different, more random scrap pieces sewn in a non pattern style which is different from mile a minute techique where an odd scrap is sewn to a strip and then joined in larger sections, but whatever style you enjoy using all the scrap pieces are beautiful in the end product.
