I like the blocks a lot! Can't wait to see the finished quilt. :-)

Those are looking really great! Since you separated them by color, you could do a really great arrangement, like water color quilts where you fade from one color to the next, or a rainbow, or a color burst! What a lot of possibilities you have with those LOVELY crumbs! WTG!!! :thumbup: :thumbup: :thumbup:

My first try at crumb blocks were not to my liking. but FDIL loved them! The ugly quilt sits on her bed, she loves it. At her wedding shower she was showing pics of the bedroom furniture her parents bought them. the quilt was on the bed. Her BFF said to me- I love that quilt, can you make another one? I laughed- it really doesn't look ugly at all.

Keep going- those blocks will look fantastic when you're done!

That's interesting that you said that. I had planned on shading it from lights at the top, through more colorfuls, into darks at the bottom. I like how you think!

Watch out! It's adictive. I decide to add just one more perfect piece. Or hey, there are two what would fit perfectly either color or size. AND you gotta keep two or three going at once so I can chain stitch.

Absolutely! It sure won't go to waste. I guess one of my faults with it, is that the pieces are so tiny. But, that is the only scraps that qualify to go into the bag.

Once you have a sashing on it brings them all together. It will look lovely.
