More finishing up

Yep, this lack of creative energy is totally working for me!!! Here is another finish - I made the top a few weeks back when I realised I had about a hundred million crumb blocks. Very basic, crumbs and blues, straight line quilting. A bed quilt somewhere.


I do like crumb blocks, they always look comfortable somehow. I called this quilt "Crumpled" because it and me can be crumpled together. The quilt looks better crumpled, I'm not too sure about me. And my scraps container is jammed full again - how did that happen? I need to make another hundred million crumb blocks... and I'm probably in the right mood for it.

  1. i like it! very nice quilt. i like the way you set the blocks. when you make your crumb blocks, do you foundation piece them on paper or cloth or? just curious. when i do them i use paper. my scrap drawers are overflowing, so i'm about due to make some crumb blocks again, too.

  4. Oh yes, very basic indeed. It just happens that you have diamond shapes made up by the plainer blocks. A tiny bit of planning required there, methinks. (I've never used "methinks" in a comment before and probably won't again. It must have come upon me because you're a lawyer and that's how lawyers talk. Isn't it?)
