This idea is not mine but find it very usful to those not geting rid of every piece bigger than 2.5 inches ;)
Well it's Bonni hunter of http://www.quiltville.com/ some where, some day last week live . I liked the idea it's matching my thoughts So here is 30 ones ready and i will not finishing soon I will continue doing them. It,s a good thing[ATTACH=CONFIG]379151[/ATTACH] |
I love these, I too have been making "crumb" blocks, mine are 4" square. I have made a four patch from them...so totally darling. Yesterday I started putting the top together- I decided to do a quilt "on point" which is new to me. They are sashed with black and have red cornerstones. I haven't yet figured out how to do the angle piece for the edges, but will investigate the internet and if I can figure it out here-the archives, to see if somebody has answered that part of my challenge. Have fun with your's.....I don't know how yet to post a photo on this stream, but I do have it posted on FB! for my friends.

and YES, I am one that has a habit of checking out Bonnie Hunter VERY regularly!
|
looks good so far
|
Like it, like it a lot. Great idea.
|
I have baskets and baskets of these. good mindless sewing when you need something to do in the odd hours. yours are very pretty ;-)

Thank you for showing us! I really like this idea. I'm going to have to reasearch it myself and start. I like your idea of strips. When you get enough I think it will be a really fun quilt!

I am almost ready to start using up more scraps and I have hope to start with the new year. I have printed off several Bonnie Hunter patterns and hope to make some of them.

great project to use the scrape up
nice |
I saw a lovely crumb quilt posted here that used 2 inch pieces. So as I work through other quilts and have those small leftovers, I cut them into the 2 inch pieces and have a drawer full of them. Perhaps after the holidays I will take a day to put them together into blocks. I love scrappies. I have made two spider web quilts and a few string quilts with my stash as well. With the price of fabric going up each season, those scraps look more precious all the time.
