Crumb Time!

For this month's Block Lotto challenge, our guild's vice president, Bruce, gave us the task of making a crumb block or "made fabric" block and inserting a tree branch. 

Here is my crumb block. I love doing crumb quilting. It used up quite a bit of my green scraps but don't worry, there's plenty left. 

His sample was around 12x17 inches so I made mine about the same size (improv needs to have some rules) but I used a marbled brown fabric instead of the solid he suggested. I don't think I own much brown solid, just a fat quarter somewhere, and I didn't think I could cut a long enough strip from it for this project.

Here is my completed block. I'm so happy with it! I've never done a Block Lotto before and I've been a member since 2016. So that was fun! I hope I win the lot!*

*For those of you who don't know what Block Lotto is, it's a monthly challenge where we are assigned a block and for every completed block you bring to the meeting, you get a raffle ticket. Then someone draws a ticket and the person with the number on the ticket wins all the blocks!
