When you are cutting your fabric and squaring your blocks, it’s inevitable that you trim and make lots of scraps. Let’s head back to Mt Scrapmore because it’s time to focus on all about the small pieces, the irregular shaped ones, even the less than 2” ones, AKA crumbs. Here are 7 ways to use up your crumbs!

A lady in our quilting group gave me a great idea - She lays the crumbs on another piece of fabric, then zig zags over the lot in a large, wide stitch. Creates new fabric. I did this onto a 20cm wide piece of plain fabric, used it for the best coasters ever!

Just a general big THANK YOU Karen for all he ideas and inspiration the past few years! I'm typing this one-handed because I had an arthritic bone removed in my thumb yesterday. Hopefully when I recover I'll be able to hold onto things and do a bit of applique again. But I enjoy regular quilting most. Going through scraps is something I can do one-handed the next few days. :)

Tiny little pieces and threads go into a small-ish flower pot out near the bird feeders in late winter. The birds collect them and incorporate them into nests. It's so much fun to be cleaning out nesting boxes in the fall, and find little pieces of last year's projects, knowing who is using which item.

This came at the perfect time - I am making a quilt of the cut offs and crumbs from all the masks I made and gave away to people in my neighborhood. (I have done over 200) I gave them away via Facebook and collected the initials of all those I gave them too, am embroidering them on white fabric and plan to combine the initials with the crumbs to commemorate this unprecedented time in history.

Sometimes, while working on a project, I'll just sew the scraps together anyway at all before I stop sewing for that day. Then I put those scrappy "blocks" together to create fabric. I've used these for bags and I've almost finished an apron this way.

I am the person that will go thru the trash after classes and pull out what others have thrown away........I once found a fat quarter. My threshold is " can I make a 1" finished size. I have two friends that will use it if they can make a seam and see fabric. Love your videos!

I so enjoy your positive attitude and innovative ideas. I’m 74 and have been quilting for 45 years, starting with traditional and now doing more scrappy in order to use up my huge but older stash. I made hubby an extra long quilt from scrappy 2.5” strips for his side of the bed. I’ve been doing crumbs this year and have assembled backings to sew into vinyl-fronted project bags for my quilt bee friends. It’s so fun to see the contents of my scrap bins diminishing. Thanks, Karen. God bless...

Those first steps back in are hard. I would encourage you to just start touching your tools and fabric again. Chances are everything is tucked away or somewhere under a dumping pile. The aim is not to get everything organized, just carve out a spot that you can sew.

The sad truth: I cut up bigger pieces into crumbs so I can make colorful scrappy blocks. Variety is the key!

Love this video! This reminds me I need to get working on my crumbs. When making crumb quilt blocks I like to separate by color. Then the blocks are somewhat cohesive. I use a lot of bright fabrics so the crumb blocks make great quilts for Project Linus.

My second quilt. First was a LLLOOOOONNNNGGGG time ago. I’m making an improv crymb quilt using scraps from my friend’s quilt guild. So much fun! I’m going to trim into 6.5” squares, either alternate solid dark, cool tone grey squares or 3” borders. I may “graduate” into regular quilts as I have found I can cut and sew w/ precision.

Working with crumbs is a favorite thing to do when thinking about upcoming projects or out of sorts with the world! I have a tub of over 200 six and a half inch blocks and have used them to make eyeglass holders and sleeping bags for my granddaughters dolls and her Peppa Pig . The crumb tub seems to grow very quickly! Yet to make a quilt..waiting for the right pattern! Love your videos and your upbeat spirit!

I saw someone who sewed small crumb blocks into around 12in squares, and then made them into a half square triangle block. Simply stunning...and of course the number of ways to lay the blocks out is seemingly endless. I loved it soych that is what I'm currently working on.

Great ideas! I have made it a goal this year to make things out of my scraps, and I have been inspired by your many videos on the topic. A couple of Ugly Quilts, some coin strips (on muslin scraps rather than adding machine tape), etc. Thanks for the interesting, fast-paced, informative videos.

I have three categories of scraps: big enough for solo projects, too small for solo and crumbs. The crumbs are going to be cut up more and used as stuffing! I got the idea from Annika Victoria here on YT. ☺️ but I do love the idea of turning them back into fabric as well. What a wonderful idea!
@judithburke1539
@judithburke1539 3 жыл бұрын
Sometimes I get a random strip of fabric and start adding crumb to it. I try to make sure that I leave a little space between the crumbs so that I can cut the strip in a straight line. Then I can get another strip and add the double crumbs to that. And once again give them some space for cutting another straight edge. Keep on going until you get a large enough piece to cut into the size you want.
