This is exactly how I quilt except I go ahead and cut my batting to the size I want my blocks to be and and as I stitch my bits together I'm stitching right onto the batting so it's a blend of crumb and fun and done.
You could do both. Putting sashing inbetween makes it look more modern I think. Keep it plain and a contrasting colour from the crumb quilt block. Thank you for your comment.
first video I've watched that explains how make the pieces smaller rather then get too large. May seem like a little thing to some but not to beginner quilter. So, thank you for not skipping that little step. I've watched your bed shee
You make it seem so easy and approachable! I’m going to try it. I feel like this is good for when you want to stitch something but you don’t have a lot of time. You can just piece things and then cut them into blocks!? 🤯 Mind blown.
You're a good teacher. I enjoyed the tutorial very much. Colored fabric boxes is a great idea! It's expensive to buy a lot of clear plastic containers. Subscribed!!
I like your colored bins for easy scrap storage. Wish I had the space for so many scrap bins. Your blocks are nice! Meanwhile, unlike you, I prefer my crumb blocks to be completely scrappy. So I randomly mix all the colors. My 'rules' are: 1) sort my scraps by length and width. 2) sew contrasting or triadic color families together, 3) selecting contrasting values. I love the truly scrappy, crazy, random look.
I still like to have that element of control over everything even a scrappy quilt lol. I seem to have issues with too many colours. I have the same probelm in my garden, just the one colour of petunias lol. Thank you so much for your valued comment, nuvoclassic
Yes!! I need to organize by color and coordinate the box to what’s inside! Labeling doesn’t inspire my creativity at all but the color labeling is just what I need to successfully make use of my scraps. Also, you are absolutely wonderful at encouraging your viewers that our creations will be great. Appreciate your videos!
I really appreciate this comment Robin, Have you seen the fabric basket tutorial? th-cam.com/video/kk3mchQoMkI/w-d-xo.html I made these in lots of different colors to store all my scrap bits. I love that i inspire you. Thank you, this made my day!
@@FaodailCreation I use 8 clear tote system and have each drawer as a designated color R O Y G B I V then the 8th drawer for pending that way I can see pretty much right through to what I have.
@@FaodailCreation thank you, yes this works well for me, because this way I know what to keep a watch, which colour drawer is getting low, so I know what to "harvest" colour wise.
I just found your chanel! So you have a new subscriber! I like how you square up your blocks! I love all ur little bins but I live in an apartment so I can't put shelves up. Instead I use gallon size ziplock bags. I can see inside to see what color they are. Just push the air out as you close the bag and they store so easy then! Looking forward to watching more of ur videos ☺️
Loved it!!!! Started two other videos and didn't get far into either and raw sewage was spewn from their mouths. So thankful, you speak properly with an actual vocabulary not sewage. Your quilting technique is very similar to mine.
I love this quilt idea! I can use up my many scraps and be as creative as I want with it. It looks like so much fun! Also I do iron the seam to the dark fabric. I was taught to do it that way and it has become a habit lol. Thanks for the video!😀
I'm going to make this by buying $1.00 clothing at the thrift store!! My daughter wants a scrappy bag and I've never quilted so I don't have scraps yet
Seem pressing Quilting to the dark side Clothing pinking sheared, pressed open then felled. Or Clothing cut pieces, surge pieces Then sew together press maybe maybe not open decide in the moment.
@@FaodailCreation awe, if you can sew 1/4" seem, you can sew a 5/8" that's really about the difference. Go simple and uncomplicated to start then move from there when you're comfortable with that. Make something out of a soft linen or flannel that you'll be happy to lounge in the house or sleep in if it doesn't work well enough for your standard and keep practicing at it. "Practice makes better!" You may surprise yourself and be happy straight off to wear in public. Look for videos on making a kirttle and how to sew a gore. Coming from sewing quilts this should be less complicated. This is where I am. The sleeves are where I ran out of confidence. But we'll see.

See you and me work so well together. ❤
@@mamamode1312 Good idea! How do you then connect your squares? Do you just sew them together, or do you use a sashing?
You could do both. Putting sashing inbetween makes it look more modern I think. Keep it plain and a contrasting colour from the crumb quilt block. Thank you for your comment.
Thank you for this great tutorial on crumb quilting!
Thank you

Fantastic tutorial. You have really inspired me. Thank you.
Awesome Julie, thank you for your comment.
Good tutorial, thank you. Great idea with the color-coded fabric boxes!
Thank you very much Ann Marie for your comment.

@@mamamode1312 that's an awesome idea too, I definently have to physically see things to get them used up!
@@FaodailCreation thank you, yes this works well for me, because this way I know what to keep a watch, which colour drawer is getting low, so I know what to "harvest" colour wise.
I’m trying this exact method. Ty for this tutorial
You're welcome. Have fun and thanks for your comment.
Just found you. Love your creativity.

Absolutely Fabulous 🥰💙 loveing the colour's 👍👍👍 . Design turned out amazing 💙💙💙
It's great isnt it
@@FaodailCreation Yes it did 😍😍
I love this quilt idea! I can use up my many scraps and be as creative as I want with it. It looks like so much fun! Also I do iron the seam to the dark fabric. I was taught to do it that way and it has become a habit lol. Thanks for the video!😀
It was fun, you dont need to over think things either. Even though I did keep over cutting sections... have fun it's a great scrap busting quilt
Just subscribed! This is the same method I use, but I don’t colour code. My crumb blocks are way more scrappy!
Thank you for subscribing and hello. That's the purpose of the crumb quit to make it scrappy I was controlling the situation way too much. Lol.
I'm going to make this by buying $1.00 clothing at the thrift store!! My daughter wants a scrappy bag and I've never quilted so I don't have scraps yet
I hope you enjoy making it !!! thanks for the comment
This is a great tutorial!
Thank you very much Lisa
I save all scraps, no matter how small.
You are so much better than I am. There gets to be so many its overwhelming at times.
ho my thought i was bad with the scraps phew i goes down stairs panic attack what to do with the scraps lol i am new to you from Newfoundland Canada
This is a great way to use up your scraps. Thanks for your comment.
I wouldn't trash the pieces that were cut off. They are still large enough to use
Said by a true quilter. ♡♡ glad you enjoyed the tutorial
I press to the darker side most of the time. Other times I split the seam.
Me too. Splitting the seam is good also just harder work and more time consuming.
Seem pressing
Quilting to the dark side
Clothing pinking sheared, pressed open then felled.
Or
Clothing cut pieces, surge pieces
Then sew together press maybe maybe not open decide in the moment.
I wish one day I'll be able to have success with clothing it's one thing I struggle with.
@@FaodailCreation awe, if you can sew 1/4" seem, you can sew a 5/8" that's really about the difference.

Look for videos on making a kirttle and how to sew a gore.
Coming from sewing quilts this should be less complicated.
This is where I am. The sleeves are where I ran out of confidence. But we'll see.
@@mamamode1312 I always have to be in the mood to sew garments for sure. Thank you for your tips.
@@FaodailCreation of course. You are for sure welcome. Sew happy I'm not the only 'freestyle' stressless quilter. Now, I know it's crumb quilting.
