I came across Joanne making these cute butterfly blocks.
I asked for the pattern and she had blogged about her tutorial. So I gave it a go....
I have had a lot of people ask how I sew my scraps, CRUMBS, together to make them into a block of something interesting. So while I was sewing up these butterfly blocks I took some photos.
Any size piece fits in somewhere. Just join them together... You'll be amazed with what you get....
I sewed lots of pieces together.
Then trimmed one side.
Added some more fabric...
What you cut off somewhere, just join it to another side. It will all fit..
Then trimmed to block size I needed.
And here we go following Joanne's tutorial this is what I got...
Go here for Joanne's tutorial.

Nice!
Beautiful butterfly. I'll be watching for yellow ones for next week's RSC link up.
Wow beautiful! Thanks for sharing x
Oh how cute! It turned out great!
I've never tried making crumb blocks, so thanks for the pictures. They made beautiful butterflies!
That's gorgeous! I made one a while back so that I would have the pattern idea...somewhere. Have a great week, Jo!
I have never thought of putting "crumbs" together this way, but it finishes up just stunningly. Your butterfly block is one of the most gorgeous ones I've ever seen. Thanks for sharing! --Andrea
Lovely, it is surprising how many blocks you can get from scraps. I did a class where we made blocks like yours then sliced them in half to sew with other blocks. We had a small quilt top in no time.
I love making Crumb blocks but never seen this butterfly idea before. Great.
Beauriful butterfly blocks Jo, they look amazing.
I loved seeing Joanne's blocks - and now I love seeing yours! Great idea to do them with crumbs :-)
love the butterfly, will check out the link. Like you love sewing scraps together made 150 blocks last month but they are only small at the moment as use tin scraps
Love the butterfly Jo
love your new blog header Jo!
