I am not a creative crumb maker. I found some paper-pieced ideas and copied them onto that clear "wash away" film with a black sharpie. Then I paper pieced the crumbs on to the film. Then washed it away. I hate tearing paper off crumb blocks. I am so lazy.

No, I sewed 5 rows together (about 20") by 120". Added batting (22" x 124"), added backing by splitting a 124" of quilting fabric on the fold line to get 2 pieces of backing 22" x 124". Then I sandwiched this section and quilted it on my sashiko machine. I washed and dried each section in my laundry machines. Then sewed each of the 6 sections together.....by sewing the tops together, trimming the batting to match, and handsewing the backing to cover the seam and match the backing. ( a little more complicated than that, but I don't want to bore you with the details). But I did not sew the pieces onto batting or backing. It looked like a regular flimsey, just in strips so I could handle this king sized monster). But thanks for asking......Jane Q
