Let’s head back to Mt Scrapmore because it’s time to focus on all about the small pieces, the irregular shaped ones, even the less than 2” ones, AKA crumbs. Here are 7 ways to use up your crumbs!

Tiny little pieces and threads go into a small-ish flower pot out near the bird feeders in late winter. The birds collect them and incorporate them into nests. It's so much fun to be cleaning out nesting boxes in the fall, and find little pieces of last year's projects, knowing who is using which item.
What a lovely idea!
I have heard it’s dangerous for the birds to have threads in their nest
Thanks for making me look it up. )))))@@oldinawahlers6116
As a vet tech - this is EXTREMELY dangerous. It leads to entanglement.
Just a general big THANK YOU Karen for all he ideas and inspiration the past few years! I'm typing this one-handed because I had an arthritic bone removed in my thumb yesterday. Hopefully when I recover I'll be able to hold onto things and do a bit of applique again. But I enjoy regular quilting most. Going through scraps is something I can do one-handed the next few days. :)
I love that this channel always makes me feel ready to go quilt and sew and make. I know you've been burt out and have had a heck of a year, but I'm so incredibly grateful for you!
Thank you Erin 💕
Me, too!
Hello, how are you doing my friend?
A lady in our quilting group gave me a great idea - She lays the crumbs on another piece of fabric, then zig zags over the lot in a large, wide stitch. Creates new fabric. I did this onto a 20cm wide piece of plain fabric, used it for the best coasters ever!
You are such an inspiration. I now use my scraps and crumbs to make a storage bag for each quilt I make. If I have larger leftover pieces, I make 1 or 2 pillowcases. Thank you
I’m amazed at how much “fabric” can be created by sewing crumbs together!
Hi Karen
@@michaellamore1148 the decisions again for years ago so when the pain gets too much see the beginning too bad and the seizure this morning was not pretty to work at my tooth pretty bad
I’ve started doing crazy quilt blocks with scraps-I’m a beginner at it but love doing it
Karen, the queen of Mt. Scrapmore - I love, love, love the improv use of scraps!!! Thank you so much for permission to use the other side of my brain.
😎
Hi Kathleen
I’m 67 and still working full time at a job I love... until I watch your videos. Then I desperately want to retire so I have time to sew all the time! I will save all these wonderful ideas for sure. I love you!
Hi Mary
OK, you are now officially the most adorable Energizer Bunny on CZcams! Thank you SO much for all of your great ideas, suggestions and technique. I am so thankful for your videos.
Your so right! She gets 2 thumbs up 👍 👍 like the Fonze
Hi Karen! I save even the itty bitty pieces that are literally too small to sew together. When I have a shopping bag full I take them to my local primary school. The kids use them to make beautiful collages.
my grandma showed me how to make "crazy quilts" when i was a little kid do anything that i can hold in my fingers and see gets saved for crazy quilts. ^^
I love crumbs. I find it relaxing to hand piece little crumbs of fabric into 6 inch blocks. I end up with load of interesting squares and eventually I get enough to make a really scrappy quilt. It's like having an extra quilt that grew by itself, lol.
👍 Im all for bonus quilts
I like how effortless they are
I so enjoy your positive attitude and innovative ideas. I’m 74 and have been quilting for 45 years, starting with traditional and now doing more scrappy in order to use up my huge but older stash. I made hubby an extra long quilt from scrappy 2.5” strips for his side of the bed. I’ve been doing crumbs this year and have assembled backings to sew into vinyl-fronted project bags for my quilt bee friends. It’s so fun to see the contents of my scrap bins diminishing.
Thanks, Karen. God bless...
P.S. That quilt for hubby weighs a ton!
Happy to see this throw back to the very origins of patchwork quilting, which started when cloth was not abundant and every scrap was used.
Hi Mary
That improv quilt is sooooo wonderful! I love it. Thanks again Karen, your videos are great
That improv quilt was gorgeous
thank you
I agree, it was breathtaking!
Thanks Karen - I don't ever throw out fabric - so crumbs go in a bin and I use for stuffing of pillows or teddy bears.
Radha Tereska Buko or pet beds!
That is a good idea.
That's what I do too, any scraps that are too small or I have no use for.
I saw a video where someone combined tiny scraps with stuffing and used it in tubes. I liked that idea.
Hello, how are you doing my friend?
Hi Karen,l hope you don’t mind me writing to you.l started quilting many years ago . I have made some nice quilt s.But Karen l have a bit of a bad year l need to get back into sewing .watching you gives me the urge to get back into my sewing. You make me feel l want to get my mojo back l have some beautiful friends , l love who try to encourage me . I love watching your video s thank you Karen
Those first steps back in are hard. I would encourage you to just start touching your tools and fabric again. Chances are everything is tucked away or somewhere under a dumping pile. The aim is not to get everything organized, just carve out a spot that you can sew.
This is why I don't worry too much about waste. I love a scrap quilt!!
Love your ideas for using up my stash!! I've started making "ugly quilts" to donate to a homeless shelter. They're NOT really ugly.. I love how they look! Thank you!!
This came at the perfect time - I am making a quilt of the cut offs and crumbs from all the masks I made and gave away to people in my neighborhood. (I have done over 200) I gave them away via Facebook and collected the initials of all those I gave them too, am embroidering them on white fabric and plan to combine the initials with the crumbs to commemorate this unprecedented time in history.
So awesome of you to make masks for others...and the initials idea is so creative! Would love to see a picture of that finished quilt...oh! You definately need to enter the finished quilt into a Quilt Show, for sure...!
I've been making crumb blocks and strips from my masks cutoffs as well!
So cool & memorable!
stitchesbysue
What a fantastic idea!
@@jules1896 👏👏👍
thank you for this Karen! I sew clothing alongside quilts and I've accumulated so many irregular off-cuts in fabrics that aren't usually used for quilts. This gave me a lot of ideas for them!
Great idea
I just love the improv quilt at the end! I am currently quilting a quilt made from the scrap bin with the exception of the border. I have 3 large scrap bins to work with. I am the person that will go thru the trash after classes and pull out what others have thrown away........I once found a fat quarter. My threshold is " can I make a 1" finished size. I have two friends that will use it if they can make a seam and see fabric.
Love your videos!
We need to make a club
@@JustGetitDoneQuilts Count me in!! ;-D
tiny, crumb quilting gives me such a challenge and the finished result is always amazing. What you can do with things most people would throw away!!
Hello Ami
I love sewing crumbs into something usable. Chain piecing crumbs is very relaxing and the finished products can get the creative juices flowing.
I agree. It really helped me in the last couple of weeks
Just finished a crumbs quilt. Managed to creat a jelly roll strip of close to 40meters! Cut into 5 strips and created 35 blocks of 25 X 25 cm. Some sashing made from an old duvet cover and a quilt top is born 😁
Nice 👍
Wow!
Hello Jen
The improv block at the end is beautiful 😍
It is amazing to me how wonderful the randomness or crumbs come together and make something that works. As someone who uses their left brain all the time for work, having that randomness brings me comfort. Logic can be thrown out the window, and feelings is what takes over and I LOVE it.
So true
Hello Maryam
@@michaellamore1148 hello!
@@maryamalothman940 how are you doing my friend, hope you are safe from the virus over there?
@@maryamalothman940 Am from Texas and you?
I'm also one of the quilters that my friends loves to give their scraps to. I make lots of baby quilts and babies and young children love lots of color. Thank you for all your great ideas. Love the improve quilt.
❤️
Hello, how are you doing my friend?
😊 Hi everyone. I love scrap quilting though it does get tricky when the pieces are tiny or irregular. Here are my favourite ways to use them up. Remember the important point is to have a plan to use them up. You won’t ever eliminate Mt Scrapmore but you can manage it. Enjoy
Mt Scrapmore! LOL
Another great and helpful video, thank you Karen! And I too love the improv quilt, really nice!
Mt Scrapmore!!!!! My apt has a continental divide of scrap! Bins full! I could be a poster child for American Hoarders! But u have shown me the way ! U saved me really. Any tips for quality shopping bags , totes?
I have used used drier sheets as a stabilizer for small pieces. I use 2 methods. One is to butt the pieces together and use a fancy zigzag to join the pieces. The second is to overlap the pieces and sew down the middle. Both methods make beautiful pieces of fabric.
👍
Personally, I bought a sewing machine about 20 years ago that I still don't know how to use - to this day. But, despite that, I still subscribed to your channel. I find it relaxing.
I love how you show things step by step I watch all your videos and they have helped me so I would just like to say abig thankyou
Thank you
Hello Cheryl
Your a great inspiration to me. I finally found someone who has has a great personality and down home atmosphere about sewing
Hello, how are you doing my friend?
I have recently finished a crumb scrap quilt consisting of various Christmas fabrics. I still have enough scraps for one or two more. Another thing I do to help the sewing is that I cut a tapering edge of the sewing seam so there is less the build up of fabric when more sewing is done.
Scrap quilting is my happy place. I love to "adopt" other quilters' scrap bags and make something beautiful and warm. Right now I'm making memorial quilts and I'm looking at fidget quilts for my next round of play.
Hi Grace
I use crumbs to make pocket prayer quilts and children's pocket comfort quilts. The finished size is only 2" square, so even a 3/4" x 1" crumb can be part of, e.g., a crazy quilt patterned pocket quilt.
You just think of everything! I never imagined you could use your “crumbs”! I’ve only used them for leaders in the past.
My aunt showed me crumb quilting as my start onto my quilting journey. I'm addicted now. I do on a weekly basis to unwind and be intuitive. I even put thread strands and unusable crumbs in my sketchbook. I love the postcard idea.
Hello, how are you doing my friend
Love your new HAIR style! I am new to quilting..I volunteered church ministry..we make quilts for several DIFFERENT charities..as a newbie i was given bags of scraps..and was told to make fabric squares.
With your great videos..i am so happy making scrappy blocks. I sew on to muslin backing. I am in love. Your color value video helped me as a DECORATIVE artist. I watch uh ou over and over.. learning..each time. Thank you. And yes the more i sew cut more crumbs.
This year, I am making my preschool staff mug rugs for their birthdays. It 's been a great way to: use up crumbs as I finish a project; make a small, personal gift at no cost; and a relaxing reward after completing a quilt top. Lucky me, only 11 on staff and our birthdays are spread out evenly over the year. Thanks for the tips. I have some adding tape somewhere...
I made some bookmarks from scraps, just another fun idea for teachers and students
One of my early quilts, I cut pieces this small just to have a scrappy quilt!! It was so fun! Now, to build up an actual collect of scraps!!
Excellent place for leftovers quilt squares. So nice to be sewing without a worry of what fits, matches, seams. Press and square. Ta da!
👍
my grandmother and great-grandmother saved bunches. Guess who has them know. And I love them.
That big block towards the end as you talk about yoga for the brain is absolutely beautiful! I want to jump into the "improv" water....this is the push I've needed! Great video!
Hi Karen, I found you by accident recently, you’ve already given me so much motivation (I’ve been binge watching) thank you so much - time now to get sewing! ❤
My husband often sees me watching you tube. He has commented that he likes when you are on. Not the usual response. I enjoy your videos also.🥰
I found you during lockdown. I started making masks (clear ones) I work with the deaf and hard of hearing ...they read lips. Well after 800 of them I break out in hives at the thought of making 1 more. I love making quilts and I have really learned a lot from you. Thank you from Florida
Hi Dori, how are you doing?
My second quilt. First was a LLLOOOOONNNNGGGG time ago. I’m making an improv crymb quilt using scraps from my friend’s quilt guild. So much fun! I’m going to trim into 6.5” squares, either alternate solid dark, cool tone grey squares or 3” borders. I may “graduate” into regular quilts as I have found I can cut and sew w/ precision.
Working with crumbs is a favorite thing to do when thinking about upcoming projects or out of sorts with the world! I have a tub of over 200 six and a half inch blocks and have used them to make eyeglass holders and sleeping bags for my granddaughters dolls and her Peppa Pig . The crumb tub seems to grow very quickly! Yet to make a quilt..waiting for the right pattern! Love your videos and your upbeat spirit!
Hello Pat
I saw someone who sewed small crumb blocks into around 12in squares, and then made them into a half square triangle block. Simply stunning...and of course the number of ways to lay the blocks out is seemingly endless. I loved it soych that is what I'm currently working on.
Thank you SO MUCH for your inspirational videos. I made a special 10 year old friend a yellow, blue and white twin size quilt. And Because of what I learn from you about crumbs, I used up a lot of my yellow, blue and white “crumbs” for the back. My friend told me that I made her a reversible quilt. I am now making an I-Spy quilt for my two great granddaughters and will make the back out of crumbs again. YOU ARE WONDERFUL!!!
This is not my idea but read it on the internet. Take your scraps or crumbs and put them in a paper bag or some kind of a container. Reach in and pull out a piece, then iron, sew, and continue picking out pieces of fabric until you are finished with whatever you are making. Sounds like fun I think. Talk about random piecing.
I use some crumbs for leaders and Enders and I sew them in to chains and cut them into blocks. I nearly have enough to make a wall hanging! Just wish I had your improv skills. I think squares and rectangles but I loved your triangle block!!!! Thanks fir your brilliant ideas!!!!!
😊 thank you
Great ideas for the use of crumbs, thanks
I use a scrap fabric for my leader and enders. I feel I waste so much thread. Now I will bring my actual scraps and start sewing them together to build my memory quilt. That way I'm not wasting thread. Lol! Thank You sew much for your videos, I really enjoy them.
love your voice so easy to listen to. I love your videos and your explanations. The only beef I have is you have no search engine to find just the right video.
There is on the channel home page
Sometimes, while working on a project, I'll just sew the scraps together anyway at all before I stop sewing for that day. Then I put those scrappy "blocks" together to create fabric. I've used these for bags and I've almost finished an apron this way.
Great idea! I'm going to try that!
I've started sewing scraps as I go as it keeps the pile manageable
Wow! You just gave me some great ideas on what I will do with some of my scraps 😃 Thanks❣
Hello Susan
Love your category “Mt. Scrapmore”
Crumbs on narrow paper strips make great sashing and borders ))) Remember to use very small stitches and PRESS each piece as you go. I learned the hard way. Miles of paper and cloth came apart when the paper was pulled off. The seams ended up as barely basted, and the length grew and grew and grew because those seams weren't pressed. I ended up resewing every seam. The iron will save a LOT of time picking bits of paper off, and resewing. Don't skimp. I LOVE LOVE LOVE my scrap quilt. Some of the pieces ended up 1/4 inch square when seam allowances got hidden. )))))) Just toooo much fun!!!
Hi Karen, I'm so glad to watch your video about what to do with scraps & crumbs. I have at least a dozen large bags FULL of scrappy pieces, all leftover from quilts. How great to finally use them to make wall hangings and gifts for family members and friends, when you don't know what to give them for their birthdays. The creative ideas are endless...oh, I think you'd already said that! LOL. Thanks for giving us some amazing ideas and sharing them.
I watched you today for the first time and I couldn’t believe how amazing you are with scraps, nobody I know has ever done this . Just fantastic
Hello, how are you doing my friend?
Karen, thanks for yet again brightening our day.🙏🏾
You made beautiful creations from your crumbs. I have some of those. Crumbs, I mean. Thank you for the wonderful ideas. Your mind is incredible and you probably create while you’re sleeping. Thank you for your creative and teaching tutorials. I look forward to your next video.
Hi Cheri
Started collecting scraps when I began quilting in 2019. Since then I have not touched the scraps. Well - 21 quilts later I have a huge Mount Scapmore. Thanks to these wonderful videos I have gone through almost all of it. I've decided 2 1/2 and 5 inch are my favorites either squared or strips and now the rest goes in crumbs. Next project ... an improv quilt to actually USE the scraps this time. Wish me luck.
I love this so much! During a recent move, I came across a basketful of my great Aunt's quilt scraps, which includes some wonderful prints from the 40s and 50s. For some reason I just couldn't bear to part with it, although I don't even quilt! I'm so glad I now have some clues as to how to use those scraps. Thanks!
Thank you Karen for this wonderful tips and ideas. Every quilters will have these issues. Take care stay safe and stay well and stay on sewing.
Hi ! Your videos help me to unlock my conditionment about .keeping nice my scraps.
Already made a few extravagant squares.and great pleasure
Thank you friend
I have a new grand baby coming in early Dec. I am working on a crumb quilt for the baby. I have been holding my scraps for years! It’s kind of cool that the baby quilt will be made from scraps that I made sibling quilts for. In the process of getting my scraps ready, I thought that I would work on a few other crumb quilts for the older grand kids from the hoards of fabric scraps for various projects thru the years. I’m one of those people who cannot throw a scrap away and now I can begin to use them up.
Thanks Karen! Crumbs are being prepped in anticipation of Bonnie Hunters's mystery fast approaching in November! I hope to plow thru a whole container. A girl can dream!
I love crumbs snd scraps, when I have a migraine I just sit snd cut my scraps into small applique pieces or i make cards and bookmarks for people
I LOVE this idea, thank you.. I really needed something to do with my fabric that didn't involve measuring...
I know this is an old video but I’m viewing it again. I save everything 😂. I use paper mostly, but keep fabric on hand because it’s beautiful and because I use it on journals and such. I end up with scraps and crumbs. I like to make buttons with them too. I keep all my “paper crumbs” too. Thanks again.
As I "mature" I realize that I'll NEVER be able to sew it all. :) so I'm trying to sew what I love the most. I'm a dog bed person when it comes to scraps but when I watch your video I'm inspired to try one of these methods. Thank you for the variety of beginner to advanced and encouragement for all. Loving the interview series as well.
Thank you
Thanks for the ideas on dealing with scraps, I am still working on what I want to do, Picking an idea is the tough part.
I have three categories of scraps: big enough for solo projects, too small for solo and crumbs. The crumbs are going to be cut up more and used as stuffing! I got the idea from Annika Victoria here on YT. ☺️ but I do love the idea of turning them back into fabric as well. What a wonderful idea!
Sometimes I get a random strip of fabric and start adding crumb to it. I try to make sure that I leave a little space between the crumbs so that I can cut the strip in a straight line. Then I can get another strip and add the double crumbs to that. And once again give them some space for cutting another straight edge. Keep on going until you get a large enough piece to cut into the size you want.
A couple of years ago I learned how to use crumbs to make new fabric. I put on a good audiobook and just sew little pieces to strips then cut them up, press, and sew them together again. I now have several large pieces of fabric ready to go. Thanks for some new ideas.
Glad you liked them
I’ve made a lot! of scrap bunting. It looks fab in the summer.
Perfect timing. Have a bag of crumbs I was starring at and wondering how can I get inspired. Going to start off with the register tape method.!!
I make a big fabric and make reusable bags
I've never liked scraps and with crumbs all the rage, I have tried my hand. I am very happy to continue donating my crumbs!!
I find that you are creating the art AND science of quilting. You are someone who brings quilting to the next level. I am so surprised that it becomes such a precice ART PROJECT!!!!!
Seeing a new video from you, just makes my morning...I've got my coffee....and am excited to see what you have for us today! I have quilting with my small bubble group in about an hour...so it is going to be a great day!!!! and a thankyou for the time, love, effort of making these videos for us...it is a ton of work...and wanted you to know you are so appreciated....have a blessed day! P.S. Could you do a more detailed video on making postcards...but doing Christmas Cards instead? That would be perfect!
Let me see what I can come up with
My guild did a postcard swap for the holidays a couple of years ago, was so fun to see what everyone came up with!
I like how you save your scraps and use them in other projects and that is a good idea and I will be doing the same thing myself.
I Join them together in pairs don’t square anything just make sure you sew a straight line then into fours eights etc I iron open seams at first to reduce bulk I straighten one edge so I can keep joining I like to have it about 2 feet wide and as long as you need makes great fabric for pouches pet beds tote bags etc and it looks so pretty. My last stint ended up 3 1/2 yards long.
Thank you! I have just found your channel and have learned more in 3 of your videos than I have in 20 years of sewing. I love your channel and all your tips and tricks!!
Hi Debi
Thank you for showing the postcard! I'll be using it for my Christmas cards this year. 🥰
Nice
Great idea!
I love this and think many of these 'ways' would make for great videos on their own, especially for novices like me!
I really like this quilt so much that after watching a few of your video's i joined "all " thank's for posting and adding the instructions in the more section.
Thank you again for helping me think outside the box..... best wishes to your family....
Love this video! This reminds me I need to get working on my crumbs. When making crumb quilt blocks I like to separate by color. Then the blocks are somewhat cohesive. I use a lot of bright fabrics so the crumb blocks make great quilts for Project Linus.
I can’t thank you enough for this video. I’ve never had “vision”.....and now you’ve done it for me!
Hello Debbie, how are you doing?
I'm making crumb blocks now, embellishing with fancy stitches on my machine. It looks like the old fashioned crazy quilts my great aunt used to make ☺
Thank you very much for this. A great way of using up scraps is to use them for Alphabet letters which is a great learning tool for children. I am sure you have received many more suggestions and perhaps you could do an update sometime down the road?
@FrancesPiquemal Making individual letters is such a cute idea! This really inspired me for Christmas ideas and first-initial gifts for loved ones. Thank you
Hello
Perfect timing!! I just cleaned and have a big ol pile of crumbs! Thank you, Karen!
Looking forward to seeing what you do
I love anything about scraps and crumbs, and BTW, your hair looks fabulous. I love it this way.
I'm always thinking of new ways to use up my crumbs.
Before i start my very first patchwork project, i decided to train with crumbsewing...now I'm hooked 😁
You are such a good motivator, your website says it all, I just want to get it done after I watch any of your videos. Keep up the great work. I love the color of your hair in today’s video.
🤗
Hello Jeanne
I needed this. Will re-watch a bunch as crumbs are my main sewing medium. Thank you!
Hello Amanda
I love watching your tips & tricks! My favorite part of all your posts is how encouraging you are, and that your not afraid to say what's inspiring to one person may not inspire another.
I have learned so much from you as a new quilter.
So glad to hear. So many ways for quilting to fill your bucket. The trick is not to get distracted by what doesn’t
U r so clever. U r a very good teacher. Thanks for helping me thru this pandemic.
