Exclamation I never want to see another Crumb again

I've decided I'm either a hoarder or just cheap. Every scrap for the last 30 years I have saved. Some measured 1/2 inch by 1 inch. I am now cured from this obsession.[ATTACH=CONFIG]608647[/ATTACH]

I don't know how anyone has the patience to sew all those tiny pieces. But it looks kind of cool, really. What will your next project be--throwing out crumbs??

The blocks are actually 4 1/2 inches, sewn 4 together. A total of 140 blocks. the first 60 were fun, the next 40 weren't, the last 40 was torture. The rest went directly into the trash. Quiltingshorttimer its not a strawberry, its actually an appliqued apple I made (don't have any idea why) in the 1980's.
