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.

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