    Amazingly, it hasn't seemed to make a real dent in the scrap stash. Hmmm... what does this say about the mountain of stash, do you suppose? :lol:

    What did you do? Sew a bunch together then cut apart. How is all the seams handled?

    Interesting blocks, but so many seams, does the block get heavy?

    TCharlie - here's a link to a good idea of how they're constructed. It's a zen thing. You get in a groove, and the day kinda floats by... :lol:

    That is a beautiful crumb quilt. Some how it looks patterned and not a crumb. It is going to be a gorgeous.
