Here are a couple of the crumb blocks I've finished. They are 9 1/2." These blocks are the beginning of the 1st quilt I'm making for DH. He asked that I please make one for us to keep.

That's fantastic!!! And it sounds like you gift a lot of quilts (desperate sounding hubby lol)
I have no idea how to do one of those but I'm going to do a search!
Wonderful work you did!!!!!! :D:D

Great looking block. Love all those bright colors and can't wait to see the quilt completed. I found it fun sewing my scrappy strip quilt because it brought back memories of all the quilts I'd made and fabrics I had used. Enjoy making more blocks.

I don’t want to admit that I don’t have pics, well a few but they aren’t good ones. I didn’t have a camera until a few years ago. I’m going to be asking folks I gave the quilts to if they can take pics for me and if they do will post them. A dear friend is searching for a pic of the 2nd raffle quilt I made – that was my favorite and I was sentimentally attached to it. I have some pics of parts of before it was quilted but it was too big to get the whole thing with my camera. I do have a couple little wall hangings that I’ll post some time but the fabric from these quilts isn’t in this crumb quilt – they were made before my love affair with bright colors. :-P

Awesome scrappy. I think of crumbs as smaller pieces though.

I was thinking that too as some of the pieces got bigger and bigger so maybe it won't be an official crumb quilt. Some of the little pieces finish at 1/4" but other pieces are pretty big. Glad you like it :)

I love these bright colors. This is going to be BEAUTIFUL. Thank you for sharing and please share finished pics as well.

So bright and cheerful! Great for spring.

Crumb Quilts ! I have not heard of those before but think I will certainly check them out. Looks like fun. Great color combos you've chosen.

cwessel47 03-05-2011 05:22 PM

I'd be saving those gorgeous blocks for a baby quilt - but I'm in the "almost grandma" stage of my life. Beautiful colors. Great piecing. Love em! Your DH must be a Child at Heart!

Crumb blocks? That is a new one on me! Are they the same a scrappy blocks? I know that one. Nice colors.

Love it.

Yooper32 03-06-2011 06:06 AM

Wish my scraps were that colorful. I am working on a scrap quilt, block by block from a pile on my sewing table and a bag at my feet, but neither the pile or the bag seem to have lost so much as a thread, instead they seem to be expanding.
