You are wonderful. Thank you so much for sharing your talent
U r the best, the most awesome, kind person on the planet. We in michigan have our great lakes, maine has Darlene Michaud. No justice
I have watched these at least 10 times, because the first time I made my first quilt ever and it will be a heirloom for my great grand daughter. I was so proud. I cried because all my life I was told I was nothing and could do nothing. Then I made something stunning, because of you. You are the best, most down to earth, easy to follow, humorous, caring teacher ever. I will always love the gift of me I received through you.

You are such an inspiring teacher, Darlene.
I love your whole energy! I also love that you are approaching this in a manner that gives me permission to not give too many hoots about perfection!!
Darlene, I love your method! You’re such a pleasure to watch and learn from…Thank you so much😊
Best crumb tutorial ever. Thank you 😃
I have been on the fence to make a crumb quilt, your video and fun energy has made me decide to jump in!
You make it FUN🎉
So creative, love it!
Love you Darlene!!!
Thanks
Hey old Darlene ❤✌🏽
I learn so much from you. You are my "TUTOR GURU".
I had to come back to where it all started...3 weeks ago I discovered crumb quilting with you when I did a search on scrap quilts and now I’m hooked. No matter which video I watch I have thoroughly enjoyed it! You are an amazing woman with such a wealth of knowledge. Your creativity is fabulous but the absolute best is your delivery...you make learning so much fun! Even when you are just chatting I find myself totally absorbed. I have almost finished the crumb quilt top that will be for my daughter for Christmas. It’s totally done with Christmas fabric and I’ll send a picture to the Peanut Gallery when it’s finished. I have so many crumbs left over that my brain thinks a tree skirt would be just the thing!
Never change girl cause you’re the best :)
I knew there was a reason why I couldn't throw away any teeny weeny pieces. Feeling very inspired and off to watch more of your videos. Thank you. Bloomin' love it xxx
Did I ever need to see this video. I get so wrapped up in getting the points pointy!!!! I stop having fun...Darlene you are a breathe of fresh air. Keep having fun and I am going to make a crumb quilt with no rules...Thanks!
I've never heard of a crumb quilt before, but I find it fascinating. I can't wait to see more. Thank you for the totorial!
I love crumb quilting and enjoy your videos. It feels like I'm sitting across the table from you! Wish I could figure out how to upload a photo of my quilt.
I never heard of a crumb quilt, so I had no idea the other day what to expect. This was a lot of fun. Absolutely will save my crumbs from now on.TFS ❤️
Darlene, I just love your style - both quilting and presenting !
Can't wait to try a crumb quilt, it looks great fun, you make everything look easy and fun Darlene, roll on the next instalment ❤️
Your video demystifies how these odd ballpieces are managed. I''m blown away how it takes cutting only straight edges FIRST. Next comes the start of YOUR CHOSEN, 4 SIDED, 90 DEGREE UNIFORM PIECE! YEA!~~
FOR HARMONY OF THE PATTERN.
I have watched numerous videos while deciding how to get started on quilting and what i want to do and yours is the one i like the best...you seem much more chill and easy to listen to...thanks for making it bearable!

I so love you Darlene. You have no idea the impact you have made in my life. I am back to living. I am making a crumb quilt. Yes me, Frances. My grand daughter laughs at me cause I talk to you when your talking. You are such a ray of sunshine. Thank you so much. You have touched my life.
OMG. You had me captivated! So much so. My cup of tea went cold. I didn't even have a sip! Love it. Love it! So fascinating. Can't wait for the next one.
Love this!! Can't wait to start mine with all my crumbs that I can't make myself toss. May make perfect doll quilts for my granddaughters.
from the first crumb video I seen, I can't wait to get started on my crumbs. I'll be like you with excitement and not want to stop sewing! :)
Your enthusiasm is contagious!
So excited for this! I am starting my crumb now! Thanks Darlene.
Oh Darlene, just love this. You make it so much easier than any others I have watched. If it wasn't so early in the morning, I would go over to my sewing room and try a few. Husband is sleeping so will not. It's only 6 AM. Lol.
Thank you for doing this video! You've inspired me, yet again! You have a gift for simplifying daunting tasks. Looking forward to this series!
I love it that, while I watch your videos sipping my tea, I feel like I'm in the room with a good friend who is sharing crafting with me, and I so have to make one of these quilts. I don't have many scraps or crumbs, so I think I'll have to get snipping and make some thank-you for for sharing your love of crafting in a friendly, no nonsense, easy to follow way x
This is for real?????????????? I am so excited!! I've been trying to find a way to go through my little scraps so my friends stop calling me a hoarder. I've been saving them on purpose... that's my story and I'm sticking to it!
So funny!!! Yes, you stick to your story!!! LOL
Hi Darlene! Thank you for showing this technique. I am a scrap junkie! I just wanted to say though how I LOVE that you are stitching on a vintage machine! I can tell that it's a Singer slant. I've got four of them! Don't you just love those old machines!
I love this crumb quilt idea........I do use a rotary cutter rather than scissors, but I love your idea of the no ironing, and the scissors......Thanks for you laughter, your sense of
humor.......I am gonna start watching more of your wonderful talent and abilities...
Just love this idea. Never heard of Crumb Quilting.
Darlene I’m having so much fun, I have been making crazy blocks I’m not good, but I’m having so much fun, I’ve done a few and I think of you because when I see tiny pieces I am overjoyed I can’t stop, but now that I have watched this video again I see what I’ve been doing wrong so tomorrow I start again with a whole new outlook, thank you so much.
This is a great video! I did some crumb quilt blocks last year, and it was so soothing! I spent one long afternoon sorting all my grocery bags of small scraps into little boxes by size (1-2". 3-5" smaller sizes, medium sizes, larger sizes) then took all the smaller than 3" sizes the next day and just sat and sewed them all into pairs, then the pairs into pairs, etc., until I had several pieces almost as big as placemats. Then I cut the placemats into small rectangles about 4" x 7" and set them aside for a while. Weeks later I had some more spare time, so I cut a bunch of strips out of some white cotton, then framed all the rectangles into blocks! It was so relaxing and mindless! One of these days I'll put them all into a quilt and finish it off. Maybe sooner, now that I've found your video! Thanks!
I LOVE the simplicity and the no-fuss of this!! I can't wait to give it a try:) I've always been too intimidated to start quilting because it seems so complicated and tedious. But this I think I can do! Thanks for sharing !!
Wow! I didn't know I've been making crumb quilts. Do love!
Love it! Love your style. I've had bags of "crumbs" and now I have a whole new quilting purpose! Thanks for sharing your technique!
Hello Darlene, you are truly the best ☆ I have never watched anyone so much on RUclips. I found you searching for quilt as you go and you had me at WONKY♡ I even read comments and found your link for your sewing machine and you brought tears to my eyes. Thank you and God bless you and all you do.
I enjoyed watching this. I'm preparing to start a crumb quilt and didn't know where to begin other than pulling out my scraps. LOL! Now I do. Thanks!
Very good demo. I really like your use of scissors instead of the rotary cutter. Now I am excited about those tons of scraps and crumbs I have been saving for more than 20 yrs.
Love your video shows. I have a great thread tip for everyone. First take two pieces of fabric, one put under your presser foot before piecing your scraps, sew on it, then piece your pieces ,the other piece is sew after you do your small piece or after you do your strip. The last piece that is sewn on leave it under the presser foot for the next piece or strip. this will save on losing a lot of thread. I use my little pieces up until it gets to bulky for my machine to sew on them. Toss the two and start with two more pieces. I know it is extra snipping with your scissors, but in the end ,it saves a lot of thread
I'm really new to quilting and your enjoyment of making quilts makes me really exited to continue
i am addicted to crumbs as well. i recently bought the 12 inch log cabin die and I use it for all my scraps. i absolutely love scraps. hope this is a long series
I love your tutorials Darlene, so informative and the "crumb" quilts look so easy to do. I'm still gathering scraps of fabric but once I have enough I'll certainly try this. Thanks once again.
What a wonderful way to start my day. Thank you, Darlene!
Hello from WYandotte MI Darlene! I watched the entire series and I created my first 5 blocks today. You would be proud! lol Thank you for the inspiration.
Good Evening Darlene, that's so much for your teaching and sharing your sewing pattern, it's so easy to learn from you. So now I'm going to pull out my sewing machine to sew my pieces of material to sew it now. Again thank you so much for sharing and teaching.
I think I just caught the crumb bug! Looks like so much fun! Kudos!!!
Just watched this series twice cos I'm a true newbie. Have gathered all my scraps and am about to start crumb quilting. Wish me luck, lol. Thanks Marlene.
The print on that blouse is beautiful.
That was so fun! I can't wait to see more
I am unable to throw away any piece of scrap fabric larger than my pinkie. I have been searching for a use for them. Now I know! Love you Darlene!
Hi Darlene, I've just finished my first ever crumb quilt top, I thought it would never end. I couldn't image sewing all those tiny little bits together, (mind boggling) but I did it! Now to add the wadding and backing. Thank you so much for your tutorials!!
You mentioned having a container of little scraps that you intended to cut up and put into stuffed toys but haven't gotten to them yet. Here's what I do, I pour oil over them (Yes OIL!) and use them as kindling to get campfires going. I live in northern Minnesota on a hill above a lake on 20 acres of woods and we love having evening campfires.

Darlene, you are so amazing. I am addicted.
I just lost my husband and needed something new in my life.
Thank you and God bless
Oh no, Darlene! I swore I wasn't going to start saving tiny scraps of fabric, but this is tempting.
What a cool video. Going to get my tubs of stash out n cut away. Thank
you I loved how you can keep cutting into smaller squares. 🌺
I have got bags and BAGS of teeny scraps that I scavenged out of the waste bins at my quilting group. Your shoutout to Olmzara's Clam's crumb quilting video earlier this month inspired me, but you have MOTIVATED me! Gonna do this. To quote my favorite RUclipsr, "Do love!"
Oops. Not Olmzara's Clam. It should have been Olmzara's Calm. Calm, as in peaceful; NOT Clam, the bivalve.

Just had to add another comment. I received a birthday box from my BFF in PA. In there she had added a bag of 1 1/2 X1 1/2 inch fabric pieces. Said she didn't know why, when, or what she was going to do with these and decided to send to me. I was so excited. Can add to my crumbs. Oh, mostly all cotton.
Love this video. Can't wait to put some of my scraps together. Thank you for your energized enthusiasm.
FUN!! I've never sewn together pieces that don't color coordinate with seams that don't match! This may help me get out of having to have perfect seams!
This was scary at first (for my OCD), but the more you did the more I liked it! Thanks for sharing this.
Comments were disabled for the wonky 9 block. I just wanted to thank you. I made my blocks like you showed. I LOVE IT! It’s for my mom’s “quilt”. Didn’t know what to do with the fabric I got for her. Also thank you for showing me that I can think outside the box about how to finish it. I stink at quilting and binding. You lit the fire of my imagination. You’re awesome 😎
Hi I just got through watching your video about the crumb quilt. That is so cool. I can't wait to start saving my crumbs. I love all your videos and you seem to be such a happy, loving, go lucky kind of person. Keep up the good videos and have a great day.
Thanks for the great tutorials on crumb quilt blocks. I'm loving the mindless sewing and the end results are fantastic.
DO love!!! Can't wait to start crumbing!
I never heard of this. Can't wait til the next video on it. Thank you.
Newbie quilter here... I love your enthusiasm! I adore chaos in my painting so I was hoping to find a way to put that into crafting. Thank you for this series
I love your video! I'm lol at your quips, and excitement at little fabric scraps because I can totally relate! I've been researching and having fun beginning making crumb squares. You are putting the scraps together as I had wondered if I could do that... Trying not to break the rules. You know? So I'm rejoicing. LoL
Omg Darlene, I love this so much....you are so lucky to have all those yummy crumbs to use! 😻
I just found your channel last week. Love your ideas and your personality!! You gave me confident that I could do a crumb quilt. Last night I started and tonight I have 30 squares completed So excited. Thank you so much
Loved watching you do your crumb quilt, I was sorting out my knitting needles at the time and I really enjoyed the pattern so far...Kim☺
Hi Darlene! I found out about crumb quilts on Pinterest. It peeked my interest, so I did a search on RUclips and stumbled upon your channel. I'm so glad I found you. I adore you. You have the best personality . You make it fun and easy to understand. I'm like you, I like to make quilt blocks, but I don't like to quilt. I haven't made anything in years and you inspired me this weekend. I almost have my first block done!
I love this idea. I am one that saves every little piece. Now I have a way of making them into something. I am definately a scrappy quilt maker, and love things different and unusual.
I'm excited!!! Time to learn something new!!
I wish I had a pile of scraps like that!! I'm a beginner so I havent built my stash up yet. I wish I could find someone who had so many scraps that they'd be willing to pass some along to someone in need LOL. Anyway, I love ALL of your videos Darlene! Best wishes dear
This is fantastic cannot wait to start.
Thank you so much for these videos! Your passion shines through! I can't wait to start mine!
Hello I love this!! I also wanna say I love your channel in general!!! I love how you can see your personality throughout all your series and videos. Your videos lift my spirits while they haven't been up lately, please keep it up!
I think you are amazing so many good ideas no waste
Love watching your videos
You are like me. I remember I commented on someone's video and they were making little carrots and cut off the salvages and I said save all of your salvages to stuff your little projects like the little carrots. I crochet and save every one of my tails for stuffing crocheted things. Thanks for the video!
I have two garbage basket under my sewing table, one is for trash (paper, wrapping, cardboard and so forth) the other one I use for very small cut up leftover materials, batting even threads......so when that get full....i stuff it to make an doggie pillow bed. So when it get full again, I can use it for something else. Just a thought. Happy sewing!
That's exactly what I have. Two trash containers. Only trouble is the one for threads and bits and pieces never ends up getting used for anything. The bags of those scraps just pile up.
Hi Darlene ! :) Ah Ha! I must admit, I knew you would find a purpose for that baggy of scraps but I didn't know what it would be. I am happy to see it become something new. This crumb quilting looks so fun. Must purchase a new car first then back to sewing projects. Rather be sewing then be car buying.
I was trying to remember what you used that fabric for and I think it was a tote, right?
Yes, a crazy quilt tote.
Great fun! I’m going to look in my bin for bits I just threw away today! You have a nice style of communicating. Thank you
Irena- England
Love, love, LOVE this idea!
I ironed everything. That's my comfort zone
I had so much fun watching this! Can't wait to see what you do next! I hope I have enough scraps to make some blocks!
Darlene, I love ALL of your videos and I wish they were longer...lol
I like the scrape quilt you did without the foundation
i am so addicted to crumbs- keep watching them over and over- also have a pile

I had never heard of this I am so excited to learn more about this. looking forward to learning more!
