Potato Chip Block - My Favorite Scrap Buster

[@Rookie1706]

huh? I came here to find a potato chip that was compressed into a block and interesting and yummy and instead I find this old lady teaching me about sewing... Ill take it I don't have anything to losee anymore

[@conqueringmountscrapmorewi2509]

Hello Zombie! LOL, I'm so happy that you liked this! I'm sorry if you felt deceived about square potato chips but this quilting is more figure friendly. This is my perfect scrap buster! They are a lot of fun to make and come together quickly! I hope you have a wonderful week ahead! Thank you for watching and your support of our little channel!

[@Bo-ti6uy]

@@conqueringmountscrapmorewi2509 Thank you for the information Brenda. The length of grain pieces have less stretch so they turn out more accurate . That is the best way to make them. I have scraps that are a mix of both and it looks like most of them are width of grain. I guess I can try one block with what I have and see how well it works. Thanks again. It may be a few days, but I will let you know how it turns out.

You should consider quilting as a hobby :)

Thank You, years ago my friend and I made very small blocks like this. I called mine; “Where in the World is Bob Hope”. There was a drawing of him on a piece of fabric. It was FUN to make.😊

Hi, several years ago, my sister (God rest her soul) & I participated in a quilt shop hop. At one of the shops, forgotten the name, they were demonstrating a unique block they had designed to take care of their scrap problem; they called it "the potato chip block". Paper copies of their pattern were handed out. Both of our copies have been lost to time. Long story short, your block reminded me of that experience! TY for recalling a good memory from time past! AND I LIKE YOUR BLOCK!

I love this block Brenda!, I like to make the blocks, but use different size "chips" in each block . It is therapy for me after several medical issues! Love the job you&hubby do!

[@AndreaMcCart1]

Great Block and great website. Thanks so much for all you do. You are a very good teacher. (I would like to say one quiet word. It would be so nice if people could find another way to say 'charity quilts'. Perhaps community service quilts or something like that. The word charity is so demeaning to people who are in need. Thanks for listening and i do appreciate you lovely website.Nice Job!👍👍 )

Jan. 7, 2024. Hello Brenda, I sure enjoyed zoom sewing yesterday, Jan. 6th. Today I visited my sister. She and her husband bought a new TV that is programmed thru the internet.

I made several more blocks tonight after cutting up more scraps. Thank you! Marion in Oregon

I have never seen this pattern before. It reminds me a little of the "Log Cabin" block. Your pattern looks like fun and should help me use up a lot or the larger pieces of scraps. If and when we (Homemakers) are allowed to get back together to work on projects again, already made Potato Chip Blocks could be turned into small quilts quickly to be given to the Police, Fire and Rescue Departments to help them provide comfort to small children in distress. Thank you for this video, pattern, and idea.

I am a new quilter who started during the pandemic. The first project I took on was a set of placemats with this basic idea. You use pieces that are 2.5 x 4.5 inches, except the layout is slightly different so that you end up with a large rectangle, perfect for a placemat. I was very pleased with this first project that I made from a jellyroll, all that I was able to get at the time. I found the pattern on the web by "Cozy Cat Quilt Patterns.

While I was working on a different scrap quilt today, I decided that rather than put the trimmings back in the "Fragments" bag, I'd cut them for your Potato Chip block.

And yes, I did get my ration of scrappy blocks done today, too.

[@conqueringmountscrapmorewi2509]

Hello Karen! I'm delighted that you liked this video. This is s so quick to sew up. You can make this with 3 rounds of rectangles just like the first version as well as doing a lattice effect with low volume. The rectangles are 2.0 x 3.5 but you could use 2.5 x 4.5 inches or 3.5 x 6.5 inch too if that is what you have on hand. Sending hugs for you because of your dad, my dad was very hard to lose.
