Default Crumb quilt

I decided to look in my ufo pile and found a crumb block I started. I decided to add onto it today and so far this is what I have done. My plans are to make it bigger. Big enough for a lap quilt.[ATTACH=CONFIG]607449[/ATTACH]

What a colorful and fun project. You have much more patience than I do for tiny pieces but it’s looking great.

Great using up those ( crumbs)
i try- but it seems like hours of sewing don’t show as much progress as I think I should show- then I move on again. I need to set aside an hour every day to just work on scrappy blocks - maybe by the end of the year I would have something to show for it. I love the colors in yours. Thanks for the * Nudge*

nice colors!
I started making crumb blocks a few days ago also. I'll see where it leads me as I have no plan except not to throw fabrics away.....

I'll be following your progress, no matter how long it takes. Enjoy the journey!

Very nice results and I love how you turned your crumbs into a nice quilt. Nice way to use up scraps and you are doing a great job on it

I've been making crumb blocks when I have a only have a few minutes to sew - not enough time to get back into my 'real' projects. I can sew for 15 minutes, and then easily store it away until the next time.

Welcome to the club! I am too sewing little crumbs together, I too use blocks which never ended in a quilt.... It's so funny and it looks really nice when you put several blocks together! Queenbarbiej how big are your blocks? They are so colorful! My blocks are about 8 inch square!
