My crumb quilt
 
1 Attachment(s)
I made 4 inch crumb blocks, then combined 4 into a block, and added black and white sashing. I call it It's not all black and white.

Nice! I've been looking for ideas on a layout for my crumb quilt.

very colorful, very pretty. my 8 yo grand daughter is learning to quilt (from me). i promised her next visit i would teach her how to "make fabric", so save all of her scraps. she's excited & this idea would be perfect for her. may i use your idea?

very pretty, I need to quilt mine. I did the 4" blocks too and think it's a nice size for a crumb quilt.

I love Crumb Quilts, they are a reminder of all the quilts that I have made for my family and friends. Yours looks fabulous!

Me too. The sashing and the borders help your eyes travel over the quilt and really see each individual block. Great use of stash.

Is there a You tube or book on your quilt? Love it. Have never heard of crumb quilt!

A crumb block is made up of small odd shaped crumbs of fabric. Here is Bonnie Hunter's tutorial on making crumb blocks. http://quiltville.blogspot.com/2005/...bs-crumbs.html
For the sashing, I cut the black and the white at 1.5 inches wide, seamed them, then cut to the size of the side of the block (8.5 inches). The 4 patch cornerstones were made with the left overs after cutting the sashing.

Pudge 07-08-2015 05:10 PM

Love it. I really should save my smaller scraps and follow your example.

Latrinka 07-08-2015 05:24 PM

Very pretty crumb quilt! Looks like fun sewing to me!

Crumb quilts are awesome and yours especially with the sashing, it's great.
