Heres the dazzling crumb block top finished in just over a week...good going for me :D

Love love the colors! Good job! :D

Wow! Very pretty and YIPPEE!!!

Wow, Izy! That turned out beautifully! I love how you framed each block. I may have to borrow that idea for my crumbs.

Here is some close ups!! :D

Wow Izy, it's Gorgeous!!! :) Well done! :)

Very nice! Love the bright colors! Good job :thumbup: How soon can I expect it. :lol:

Oh Izy, I do love that .... it is sew nice and bright.
What is the finished size of your blocks?

I love how you framed out each block. Great crumbs.

Pretty :!: :!: :!: very bright and colorful. Good job on completing it in a week.

What fun! It is so cheerful!

Nice going! I love that it's so colorful. Very pretty.

hey i like your crummy fabric.......I see such pretty colors. That made a beauty :D

I agree with Chele. I like how you framed each block before sashing. That is one cheerful quilt. You must feel so proud. I'm sure that was a lot of work. Good job Izy! :)

Hi Izy, Well done.......so when did you sleep????? Just messin you know me, really love it, the colours are so vibrant, a lot like Spain.
See you 2moro Elle and I want to see the quilt for real

Thanks everyone for your lovely comments...you are so encouraging!!

The blocks are 6" with the coloured border, this is only my second pieced top and I can tell you it gave me some grief trying to match up all those squares....alot of them are wonky even though every one was squared up with a 6" template before I added those coloured borders...well all in all I am pleased with the overall effect and I am sure when it is quilted your 'eye' wont be drawn along the lines so much...well I hope so :lol:

I have pinned and microtacked it this evening, and decided on a lovely soft fine fleece for the backing, so tomorrow at the guild day, I can get on with the quilting!! :D

beautiful quilt. i think i may have to try this.
i especially like how you framed each block before adding sashing. really sets it off. just the perfect finishing touch.

Awesome quilt, Izy! How can you not be happy just looking at it??? Now you can start sleeping at night again!

so cute and FUN!!! Great job!

Very nice!

Gosh I really love that. How could one not be happy when looking at it, or laying under it??? :D :D :D

That's fantastic. Can I make one just like you! The colors are striking and I love the colorful little strip border around each block.

I had to peek at it again--it's so artsy. I looked at the directions before and couldn't quite wrap my head around how to go about it. You make me want to try harder. :wink:

Izy, all your hard work and late nights paid off. It is great.

Cheery, bright, awesome :D :D :D

first time i've heard the term "crumb" - just another name for scraps?? or is there more to it than that??

Your quilt is wonderful! Nice and bright and cheery! I love it!

I'm finishing up a scrappy-strippy quilt top this week (maybe) and I think a crumb top maybe my next go round with the scrap basket.

Have you noticed that when dealing with the scrap basket the scraps seem to multiply? (Like wire hangers in a dark closet?) I am telling myself it's only because I'm fluffing them up but there really does seem to be more than when I started! Argh!

Ooooooh, gorgeous!!!!! :)

Barnbum - You and a couple of other ladies have expressed interest in how to make these blocks, would you like me to make a photographic tutorial so you can see step by step, if so just let me know, and I will make one up :D

Outstanding job Miss Izy!!! And I love the sunshine filtering in through the window - makes us all feel warm and happy :):):) The colors are fabulous.

I know I have seen this somewhere, dont remember if it was on here or where, but I , for one, would love it if you did up a tutorial for us!!!!!
Please, please, pretty please! :wink:

I just love it!!! Very bright & colorful. Nice work!! :D :D

Right tutorial it is....I will start it tomorrow as DH is away for a few days, so I will have more time with less interuptions to play!!!!!!! :lol:

Great Izy!! Thank you so much !

Wowza!! I totally want that quilt!

Love it!Loveit! Makes me happy just looking at it.

Beautiful!! My quilting group's saving scraps! Can't wait to do a group Crumb project. Good job!

oooohhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhh love it love it, it's beautiful.

I layered the quilt up yesterday, and used a lovely soft fleece for the backing, so with great gusto, got started on some free motion meandering....WHAT A DISASTER!! Its just too thick and heavy to move around enough, so just spent 2 hours unpicking...not easy on fleece either :(

So what to do now....??? any suggestions, I fancied doing something different rather that doing in the ditch ... :?
