Here is my first all crumb block
"Spring Rains".
(click to enlarge).
This took four days to make...
crumbs are not a fast project
but,
for me,
a really fun and satisfying
way to sew...
I find it so interesting to rifle through
that giant scrap bag and
begin to pull out fabrics that
"call my name"...
And
then
slowly, they all seem to
come together...
A whole lot of cutting, trimming
and sewing:
repeat and
repeat and
repeat again..
The lovely Iris fabric
(featured in 3 places)
was the biggest and last
piece left...
just a couple
narrow string pieces
are still in the bag....
I have no definite plans for this
little mini piece...
we shall see what happens
during my next
playtime..
Won't it be fun to quilt???
************************
And in a similar-- but different
vein...
I made
what I call a
"FUNFETTI"
"FUNFETTI"
block...
↧↧↧↧
Capturing those tiny snips and
slivers of fabric all encapsulated
in white on white chunks...
I think I am trying to 👀
just how small
I can go....
[See that teeny-tiny little sliver
of green on the middle left?
{click it}
I am so totally smitten
with that].
Call me CRAZEE and
you wouldn't be wrong.
I find this so rewarding
and relaxing...
Again, not a fast process;
that one block
took about 4 hours
to make...and I had
the tiny pieces
all saved...
I hope you enjoyed this little peek
into my Saturday playtime
with my tiniest scraps...
Thank you for following my
sewing journeys...
I love to read and
answer all of your
comments ...
