Crumb Chaos

Crumbs? No I'm not talking about bread crumbs.

In the quilting world crumbs are little pieces of scraps sewn together to make blocks. Very random scrappy happy blocks. Similar to crazy quilt blocks, without all the fancy stitching. (If you throw out your scraps your crazy). They can be made into wonderful snuggling quilts.

My friend Pat @ Bell Creek Quilts showed a beautiful quilt top she quilted made from crumb blocks on her blog. However her crumbs where all blue and red. She made a Quilt of Valor quilt out of them. She also provided a link to a photo tutorial on how to make these crumb chaos blocks. Although I don't have a photo to share right now I knew I had to share the links with you. (A photo will come later). CRUMB CHAOS PHOTO TUTORIAL
