Wow! That's an eyefull.. Hope you use it on your bed. It will pick up any bedroom. Or over a sofa.. I love busy stuff like this..

I like it a lot..your polka dot material is wonderful. I love polka dots. Thanks for sharing!

Really is a great quilt. The sashing sure made the difference when you put it together. Great job and how much did it cut down your scrap bin?

Each block is like a story...I could look at them and say this looks like my story...or this reminds me of my friends life...lol..I know I am weird.

Wow, this is really quite pretty. I do love it.

Cormiae 08-19-2013 08:35 AM

I Love it! I want it!
I think I'll make me one.

I'm not usually a fan of crumbs; just too busy and no focal point...but yours is wonderful! The sashing fabric is perfect; each block is like a little picture all by itself. Well done!

What a great quilt and so interesting. Bet each block brings back memories of things made or even not finished. Love it.

Great quilt, love the polka-dot sashing, nice touch.

ArtsyOne 08-19-2013 09:17 AM

Very impressive! I can say that because all I had to do was make 4 crumb blocks and what I thought would be an easy process wasn't easy at all and I was so disappointed in my result that I'll never try it again. Instead, I'll admire yours and congratulate you oodles and oodles. Love your choice of sashing too.

AWESOME....need to get started myself!!! The sashing offsets it beautifully....

klgls 08-19-2013 10:28 AM

Wonderful use of scraps and I love how it turned out!!!

krissr 08-19-2013 10:49 AM

How fun and wonderful. Us crazy quilters do not like to throw anything away. Maybe I should pull out my boxes of crumbs!

Arkygal 08-19-2013 10:53 AM

Such a great idea! I love it!

Susanna10 08-19-2013 11:22 AM

Love scrappy and crumb quilts. Yours is very pretty.

Very, very cute!

Love the sashing - it tied the whole quilt together nicely.

Podunk Princess 08-19-2013 11:57 AM

Great quilt....love the sashing fabric! Adding the pinwheels really gives this crumb quilt a little something extra.

northern lass 08-19-2013 12:09 PM

Your quilt is gorgeou. So bright and colourful. The sashing is perfect.

Came out so nicely. Sashing brings it all together. Good job!

Sewbeeit2 08-19-2013 04:28 PM

Just awesome...love the polka dots... Keep up the crumb cakes

earthwalker 08-19-2013 04:39 PM

Oh that is so pretty! I really love the sashing....time I got out of my comfort zone and tried some colourful sashing (I tend to always pick solids).

solstice3 08-19-2013 06:29 PM

Looks great. I need to try that

smurfsmom 08-19-2013 06:39 PM

I like making these blocks. LOVE the sashing!!!

QandE2010 08-19-2013 06:55 PM

I love it. It is so cheerful and you were "spot on" for choosing that sashing fabric. Awesome.

JJean 08-19-2013 07:19 PM

Great quilt!

amelia0607 08-19-2013 07:31 PM

Very nice! Love the pinwheels:)

brandeesmom 08-19-2013 07:41 PM

Thank you all very much! When I showed my daughter the polka dots that I wanted to use for the sashings and backing she did not care for my choice, but after I went ahead and used it and she saw it finished, she really likes it now. I absolutely love polka dots!

suzanprincess 08-19-2013 08:26 PM

The pinwheels and dotty sashing make this crumb quilt sing!

Delbra 08-19-2013 10:17 PM

love it. I was wondering what type of lattice you would use.

jmoore 08-20-2013 02:33 AM

very pretty quilt with lots of fun colors...

RugosaB 08-20-2013 02:33 PM

I see all the positive comments about the sashing, I'm going to add another. Isn't it just the best? Love it!

Riverton Quilter 08-20-2013 03:43 PM

I love this quilt, but I've never heard about a crumb quilt block. Is there a pattern, how do you do the blocks?

blondeslave 08-21-2013 11:50 AM

Too cute-the sashing is perfect!

brandeesmom 08-21-2013 12:33 PM

I can't tell you how much your post meant to me. I have been working on two quilts, tossing crumbs and thinking about giving away some of my smaller scraps. I have big piles of scraps and crumbs, all ironed and sorted by color, but have never had a use for them. Then I read your post and saw your wonderful polka dot sashing and I changed my mind. I even dug some tiny crumbs out of the waste basket, combined them with other scraps and I have a third quilt going now! I love the polka dots, too. I have been hoarding polka dot fabric until an idea came along, so thank you!

What a great quilt, Love it !
