Crumb quilting is essentially just making a scrap quilt but with really small, and sometimes oddly shaped scraps of fabrics – crumbs!

I like to have some sort of theme when crumb piecing. To me, this helps the overall look to be more aesthetically pleasing.

Materials Used:

– Sewing machine – Sewing thread – Rotary cutter – Bits of fabric – Ironing board

Step 1:

It does look a little bit nicer if the shades are grouped together. I try to find the smallest pieces to start with.

Sort your fabric scraps by color.

I try to find pieces that are similar in size. Then line them up, right sides to right sides with a shared edge.

Step 2:

Line your crumbs up.

Step 3:

Next, you chain-piece them together with the sewing machine. I use a scant ¼” seam when I’m doing these.

Chain piece the crumbs together.

When I feel like I have enough pieces together, I cut the thread.

Each time I add a crumb to another piece, I take them to my wool pressing mat and press the seams with my iron to one side.

Step 4:

Iron.
