Hello peanut gallery! I guess I was too tired to sew. It was late and my brain was fried. I made so many mistakes and I had to cut a big chunk of video near the end because I could not edit in a way that made any sense. That's why the video ends so abruptly. I won't sew this tired again! LOL I hope you still enjoy the chat. Thank you for watching! xoxo Here is the playlist for this series: tinyurl.com/y9zcg63f
Darlene, thank you for all these Crumb Quilt Adventure vlogs! You are a joy to watch! I love your humor, methods and excitement over the crumb blocks coming together! I’m really enjoying putting my crumbs together too…thank you for sharing your journey and knowledge ❤️🐞❤️
I'm sitting on my laptop with headfones on and my family are saying "What the hell are you laughing and smiling about?" My answer "You wouldn't understand, it's a Darlene thing". LOL. Keep making me laugh as you teach me. Love this series.
I am enjoying this series so much. I'm glad it's a series with new ideas along the way. Thanks for introducing me to something new. You are very good at explaining each step.
I am a new subscriber but an old quilter. I have made hundreds. But never a crumb quilt which I plan to start soon, thanks to you. You seem like a natural born teacher. Looking forward to watching more in this series. I have been enjoying your videos on the sidelines for a little while. Good to "meet" you.
I could watch these crumb quilts all day. The color combos are beautiful. I have to tell you your voice and laughter is so pleasant. Thank you for sharing Darlene🌺
Im back. You are a delight. Discovered you just a few days ago and have laughed with you and look forward to seeing your finished quilt. So glad you posted your videos so I could catch up to you with a stset of my own quilt.
LOL...You are AWESOME!!! I've had the quilt bug for some many years, read book after book but hadn't found anything that made sense...until you! I will continue watching and hopefully complete a few quilts!
OMGoodness you're a hoot! I just found you a week ago and I'm loving this series! Being a quilter I've always wondered about crumb quilts and agonized over the thought of all those little pieces! You've made it so much easier! Love it and you too!
I just adore you! You are so "real". My significant other doesn't know if he should love or hate you because you have inspired me to clean out my stash. I have found so many orphaned blocks and leftovers that will work as crumbs. I have tubs sitting everywhere (including in his recliner)! Has inspired me to re-evaluate things I have been saving. thank you so much!
You are so addicting to watch. I love your excitement on making the squares. Can't wait to see what you decide with finishing this quilt. Would really love to see no sashing in the future if you don't decide to use it here. I stumbled upon your channel and now I can't get enough of your videos.
I like that you show simple things and don,t waste material. I,m sorry to hear about your mother, you will be both better off with separation, you are so gifted thanks for sharing....a retired Canadian sewer
Darlene, I just found you today, as a suggested RUclips to watch. I have watched Ep. 1-8 and enjoyed everyone of them. But the same as you, I was on overload and getting tired. I have subscribed to your channel, I love the way you demonstrate and talk as if each of us are you r closest of friends. Can't wait for another day when I can watch for a few hours.
Isn't this a fun quilt to make? Your blocks are lovely. I'm making my second one and will be doing some fun corner stones in my sashing for this one. I love how there's no thinking involved, lol.
I so love watching this process. It is amazing! The different color/pattern combinations and all the angles are great! Can't wait for more! Thanks for doing this series!
Darlene you mentioned in a previous video that you can't wait to see what those in the Peanut Gallery make with your fabric. The crumb quilt I am currently making along with you also has your fabrics, is there a particular email you would like us to use to send you pics of the projects we made under your tutelage?
I'm trying to make 8 1/2 x 8 1/2. When I get to about 12 or so crumbs together and it's not quite large enough, that's where I get stuck. I have photos but I can't post them here
Okay I watched the video over. At around marker point 9, you show how you hate to lose those little tiny squares. So do I. That's why I'm having such a hard time because I don't like to cut those off. So thank you for showing the solution. And for giving permission! LOL
I rarely wash my fabrics. I wash if I'm making shirts for myself as I want the fabric pre-shrunk. You can pre-wash if you want. You don't have to if you don't want. Some insist you do. Some insist you don't. You do what you want because there are no rules.
I have no clue. I need to check some out. I use a very old version of printmaster for my digital quilt shows but that is not quilting software. If I find something I'll be sure to mention it in my videos.
It just occured to me, very, very small pieces of yarn/cloth or string could be recycled by putting in a small bin in the yard for the birds to start making their nests for winter.
@@kayking3488 did you read her comment? She stated very, very SMALL PIECES or yarn/cloth. That does not sound like stuff that would bet wrapped around bird's feet. I mean really, fucking grass can get wrapped around bird's feet. Please don't come to my channel and tell people what not to do. It's quite insulting.
Charlie, I'm very curious as to what makes you go to a complete stranger's channel and say fuk u. I sincerely want to know. What is the thought process behind that? Does it feel good to just reach out to strangers and do that? I see you have a channel too. Do you think a content creator is going to have any success if they contact other creators with a fuck you for no reason at all? I say fuck you to people, but in reply only. If someone comes here and messes with me, they get it back. But never in my life would I ever just wander over to someone's channel and say fuck you. Please explain what you get out of that.

Oh gosh, Darlene. I'm the queen of making mistakes when I'm sewing. Lol. I'm glad no injuries were reported! 😂

"The scissors fell. No injuries were reported". Bwahahahaaa. Your sense of humor matches mine, lady. You are a hoot!

Can't say enough about your way of teaching. Wonderful.
I think this series is great. I have started my own just from watching you do yours.

Easiest one to remember is peanutgallery@darlenemichaud.com It's in the description if you need it.
thnkx for ur, tips...I've so much from your tips...you r a genius artist...
excellent video again
Thank you Darlene, I was going to ask if cutting on the diagonal was good, but you covered it lol. Is the aim to do all blocks same size? X
Hey Darlene, how did you make your cutting mat with the handles? I know how you attached the handle but where would I find a clear ruler mat?
What singer slant are you using there Darlene?
I'm trying to make 8 1/2 x 8 1/2. When I get to about 12 or so crumbs together and it's not quite large enough, that's where I get stuck.
I have photos but I can't post them here

Do you wash your fabrics before you begin this process?
I rarely wash my fabrics. I wash if I'm making shirts for myself as I want the fabric pre-shrunk. You can pre-wash if you want. You don't have to if you don't want. Some insist you do. Some insist you don't. You do what you want because there are no rules.
Off topic. What editing software do you use? I need to buy one and would love insight. Thank you
I still use the old free Movie Maker that is no longer supported. I'm stuck with it for now because I don't want to learn anything new! lol
Can you do a video on fabric beads pretty pretty please
Hi Darlene
I’m looking for a good quilt design programs for my computer, do you have any suggestions??
Thanks Tracey
I have no clue. I need to check some out. I use a very old version of printmaster for my digital quilt shows but that is not quilting software. If I find something I'll be sure to mention it in my videos.
Darlene Michaud thank you
What is your stitch length?
No clue. Use whatever stitch length you want. No rules here!
Qué costurera mas buena a éso se llama reciclar un saludo
Wonderful series, dust I Nguyen off my machine
It just occured to me, very, very small pieces of yarn/cloth or string could be recycled by putting in a small bin in the yard for the birds to start making their nests for winter.

FUK U
Proper swearing only please. It's fuck you.
Darlene Michaud lol thanks next time I know better tanks

He has only 3 short videos and 3 subscribers. Maybe, he is trying to draw traffic to his site? Just weird.
I didn't understand that either, but to that person I say, "Have a great day" because apparently they need it!
I love this series!
you are so fun to watch & learn from.
