A Crumby Finish Up

 Well, the longarmers have come through, 

and the big crumb quilt is complete.

This quilt used up a large amount of beiges

for the lattice and large outside border.

A number of people who saw the quilt,

commented that a quilt entirely of 

beige strings would be lovely.

The low volume look is certainly attractive.

Each colour block of crumbs is 

framed by small border of gray.

Since all but a few small bits of the fabric 

was used for the block frames,

I had to scramble to find a matching gray for the binding.

My stash yielded a good match.

 The quilt was bound up at 

the last sew day of the year.

If you recall, I had to rework the framing of the blocks. 

 I'd gotten ahead of myself and edged the blocks completely 

before they were set into the quilt.

I am hoping this quilt remains a keeper.

I love how every different fold shows a different color. 

The look is really appealing and it really reinforces

my feeling that colour family blocks always look wonderful.

Did you catch a glimpse of the new floors?
