Low Volume, Great Impact



The crumb square bank is getting a

workout with the low volume sashing 

ready to be added. 

The crumb squares 

will be getting cornerstones.

It will be fun to see how it turns out.

Here is the first little trial.


I did frame them since it will mimic the big squares (I hope).

The look is much different without the 

frame around the corner stone.




Together the difference really shows. 

The cornerstones will all have the frame!

A week later and it is all ready to stitch together, 


but first, the 8s & 10s needs to vacate the design wall. 


Things were starting to layer up!

I haven't followed the RSC for 2025 often, but look!  

Feb - Blue

March - Yellow

April -Red

May - Green

July- Purple 

So I have gotten a few of the RSC colors into

this top. The rest of the crumbs are on the wall. 

There is a pile of crumbs still needing homes.

Maybe a smaller quilt is in that pile!


A whole box of low volume/whites/beiges 

were discovered on shelf so there will 

be no shortage of backgrounds this time!



The top will finish with 4 x 4 of the large 

crumb squares and 3 x 3 of the small cornerstones.


Stay safe and sew on!

    1. I have fallen in love with the low volume backgrounds. Much more interesting than plain whites or beiges.

  8. The framing is a great idea for crumb blocks. My purple crumbs just keep showing up. A testament to the fact I’m not an organized scrap keeper. They were living all over my sewing room!!
