Deep Red Crumb Squares -

The other day I issued a Crumb Square Challenge - HERE - to see if anyone was willing to try making their own version of my Crumb Square quilt top -

My layout is a simple re-do of something I had seen on AllPeopleQuilt -
HERE - Inspired by Stamp Of Approval from Designer Tonya Alexander (EyeCandyQuilts - blogspot - com)

Two of my friends have accepted the challenge so far -

Gene Black - Quilter, Weaver, Artist in Alabama - posted what he was playing with HERE -
Gene worked up some nice variations in EQ7 -

And -

Julie Fukuda - My Quilt Diary - posted about her project HERE -
Julie does ALL of her sewing BY HAND -

I LIKE where this is going - ;))

These two quilters are VERY talented and VERY creative -

It will be fun to see how they take this challenge and RUN with it - ;))

As for me -

I got the Deep Red "alternate" square sashes sorted out in sets of four -

And the sections all sewn together -

But only got one actual "block" sewn today -

Tomorrow I should be able to get the rest of them together -

Then it's on to making more "crumb" blocks - ;))

Won't you join us? -

It's VERY addictive and a LOT OF FUN!! - ;))



Talk to you later - gotta go - gotta sew -
