Thats what I am planning to do, I might even see if I can find plain primary colours to 'frame' each block then use black as sashing.....how does that sound????????????? :D

That is so fun!! It's such a happy quilt. :D :D

Hey! I've seen that fabric with the droplets on it--isn't it fun to know it's in NY AND in Spain. :D

That sounds ggod to me! It's going to be so pretty.

I got that droplet fabric from ebay before I had the problem with identity fraud.....it was a charm pack, its very nice quality fabric too!! I didn't know what to do with it.....,until I got all those scraps :D

Is this done with paper piecing? What is this term,CRUMB quilt,is this something new I missed. Or just what you call using scraps. Certenly don't want to miss out on any thing new..

Knot Sew

I got some of the same from Wally world. But most of my scraps are dull. .......I like the bright colors :D

Izy

No its not paper pieced, I just start with a small piece, line up another, open out, line up another piece, and work my way around, until its big enough to be squared up to 6" If you use the search button at the top and enter crumb blocks you will find a link to a tutorial, which is what got me started :D Hope this makes sense :roll:

What nice collection of bright colors. That will make a great quilt for your great nephew. Bright colors are so cheery to work with. :D

Izy

You are so right, my mood has lifted no end while I am playing with all these lovely bright fabrics I just keep tossing the pile up in the air and see what catches my eye for the next piece...this really cant be described as working as its so easy, I have completed about 12 now... be finished by midnight...lol!!!

Very striking Izy. The crumbs are so addicting once you get going, as you know, huh? Keep up the good work and we'll look forward to seeing the finished quilt.
