Crumb Quilt Block

"Make the most of your beautiful scraps! Learn how to turn your tiny scraps or 'crumbs' into a modern quilt block or even an entire quilt top! I have a step by step written tutorial as well as a video tutorial to guide you through how to join your crumbs to make a unique and creative quilt block. I've used low volume scraps with pops of bright color from some of my favourite pieces from my scrap bin - this can be a great way to make the most of that fabulous (and sometimes expensive!) fabric!"
