Crumb Quilting Tutorial - USE UP those SCRAPS!

Loads of crumbs/scraps that you need to use up in quilts? This tutorial will walk you step by step through the process of making great Crumb Fabric for gorgeous quilts!
(FYI: Toward the end of the video there is about a 7-second clip with no sound as I am sharing info on the threads that I'm using for the applique of the Crumb Hexies! My apologies! The threads I am using are Aurifil in the bobbin and an Embroidery (rayon) thread for the applique in the needle.)

I use dryer sheets, after they come out of the dryer to use for appliqué and backing for scrap crumb squares/rectangles/ hexies/circles.

You will love your new Janome. It’s the best machine I’ve ever had!!!

I love seeing how you made fabric out of crumbs. I also like your ideas of cutting the crumb fabric in shapes and apliquing them to background blocks using interfacing. I look forward to seeing how you complete this.

PS you have shown me a new way to do applique, I use phlisovex not sure if that is spelt right but you know what I mean, I also use Pellon as well so thankyou so much for sharing that, it's a lot less messy ❤

You cant really hear your puppy at all. Don’t worry . Really enjoy your videos.

I wanted to mention a trick I learned recently. Cut a small slit in the center of your interfacing BEFORE you sew it to the shape. This reduces the risk of accidentally cutting into your fabric after sewing them together.

Can hardly wait to see the final quilt/wall hanging. Thanks for the video 😊

Where is your video on how you made the crumb blocks? I don't see it listed in the description, thanks!

[Sewing]

When cutting the fabric across seams, do they ever unravel? What stitch length do you use to join the scraps to possibly prevent that?

[brendasweeney]

I have another question. What color is the background fabric? Thank you

[francespiquemal]

Thank you very much for sharing. Please keep your dog near and the snoring. Animals make experiences more joyous.

Based on this video, I now know what I am going do for a block that I am going to cut up to use as a triangle for a few blocks that I created from crumbs. I could never use the block even as an orphan block, but as part of a crumb block, it will serve a beautiful purpose.

Could you please tell me what kind of sewing machine you are using? Great video.
