Wow, this blew my mind! I assumed you were going to carefully lay down each piece, one by one, but then you attacked them with the rotary cutter and shoved them inside, hahahaha! The result is gorgeous and the tulle hardly visible. I’m going to rescue all the crumbs from all my bins and try this! Delightful!
Normally, I think people talk too much with their tutorials. But my goodness, you have the sweetest voice! I thoroughly enjoyed your chattering as you worked away. Thank you for the tutorial!
Her voice is the right pitch, and she has a gentle voice that's natural and quite frankly very enjoyable ❤ she would be great reading out loud books, plus there was no annoying music either to put up with. 😊 just lovely and really pleasant ☺️ ❤
Wow, I’m watching from Nova Scotia, Canada and think what you have created is terrific. At 75, I’ve decided to take sewing up again and will definitely be giving this a go. You are a wonderful teacher…..thanks so much!
I too and a Canadian, from Ontario. Hi! I have a whole huge jar of fabrics I cut up into "crumbs" and wasn't sure what to do with them. Now I know! Thank you Rachel!
Mind blown when you took the rotary cutter to the crumbs. I couldn't fathom how you would stitch them together. A very creative technique. Now I'm off to salvage my "too small" scraps from the bin and see what magic they'll make. Thank you!
I completely agree with you Linda. I wasn't sure how the bits were going to be joined either but was pleasantly surprised. Love it and can't wait to try.
This was beautifully presented. Clear instructions that were shown slowly so we could keep up. No wild back ground music which was nice to have, just nice AMSR moments. Also your speaking voice was so calm and comforting.
This is the prettiest and easiest way to use crumbs that I've ever seen. I try to not waste any materials when working on projects. I send my thanks to you and your thoughtful sister you made you the first one. God bless you.
I could not have predicted how it would come out! It really is a lovely blended watercolor effect and the quilting/padding makes it just look like it's so cozy and would be wonderful to touch!
I BELIEVE this is the MOST easiest and PERFECT project to use scraps;esp of a collection that we love to buy, just CAN'T throw those lovely pieces away. ❤❤❤❤ Huge THANK you for your sister's creation and you sharing.
Ohmygoodness! What a find! I've seen other confetti techniques, but not one as simple as this. No nonsense - just do it! Eye catching idea. Thank you so much Rachel.
I like the way you attached the binding from the front to the back, for beginners like me it helps to conceal any bloopers along the way and the corner miters (US) lay flat.
That is such a great way to use up the little scraps. I loved how the bears really gave it character. Thank you for showing us how to do confetti crumb quilting Rachel. xx
Wow. I have watched videos for 6 years and I just discovered you. Your presentation is so relaxing, instructional, and encouraging. I will sit and binge watch I am sure. Thank you.
Love the scrap idea after watching this video, so saved everything from my cutting today, then remembered I had some scraps in the little bin in the bedroom where I do my sewing. Took all the scraps out of that bin and found the safety cap to my thread cutter/snipper that had been missing for a few days. So thankyou for this video, or I'll never have found the cap, as it would eventually have gone forever 💞
I was very curious when I read the title of your video. Surprise, surprise! I had no idea about this fun technique. Alas, I have thrown out so many little bits and now I am mourning their loss. The Care Bears was a touch of genius. Just subscribed.
Wow! Perfect idea for Christmas gifts. I can taylor each one for each grandchild, so everyone has one that is just for them! They will love it and I will have a blast making them! Thank you for the great idea! Jean Colorado USA
Whoo hoo. That's great. I've wondered WY I keep saving teeny tiny bits of fabric and now I know what to do with them. Will be watching more of your videos now I have found you. Thanks for sharing such a gorgeous project.
Rachel you have such a soft demeanour and a pleasure to watch. Your placemat turned out so cute. You know I’m gonna have to try one for sure so easy. It’s just yeah I don’t know. I got Christmas projects. I’ll save those bits and pieces and give it a whirl. Thank you so much for sharing with us..👍❤️🙂
You've explained something I've been struggling with for years - mitred corners with a binding! Thank you so much - beautifully described. I shall be redoing all my cat mats.
What a lovely and fun project. My plan is to make a placemat "pocket" for each granddaughter and let them stuff away to their hearts content using bits of fabric, lace, ribbon and yarn. Then I can quilt and bind to finish. Also thinking to include lettering which spells their name. Another option is they make a surprise one for each other. Or use batting, fleece or flannelette instead of foam, make loads and put together a QAYG blanket. So many wonderful options! Thank you Rachel.
What a wonderful project. Now I know what to do with all those tiny pieces of fabric. No landfill with this project. This will make great gifts. I was thinking of using all my Christmas scraps & gifting for Christmas. Thank you for sharing.
I enjoy your project. But most of all I love to hear the stories about your shopping experiences. I might be your older viewer, but keep things going and you admit lots of projects in the works. I think we all have many projects going at one time. I now know what to do with my scraps. Thank you for sharing your knowledge.
This is incredible. I couldn't believe you were literally using crumbs and were just stuffing them in there. And it all came out SO beautiful. Thank you for sharing - what a blessing. I can't wait to make me one or a 100.❤️❤️❤️
Great video. Never have I ever seen anything like this! Had to try it right away. Dropped all my other sewing and just dove into all those scraps!!! Sew fun!!!! 17:17
Thank you - Love it . I am a fabric scrooge and cant throw away even the tinest bit - Now I can make these . Thank you . I hope to watch more of your delightful videos. Great way to be frugal and reduce waste too...
I saw whole quilts done in confetti crumb at the Dallas Quilt Show when I was there several years ago and was amazed! They were done in like park scenes, street scenes, etc. Beautiful! Now that I'm back into quilting, I'm trying to figure out how to separate the pieces so that I can eventually try my hand at it.
Rachel I love this project. I can’t wait to make one! What a wonderful sister to gift one to you. I have pink organza with sparkles it will make a great gift. The quilting lines just had that magical touch. I love it! Happy stitching.
Oh crumbs......that was absolutely delightful. I would never have thought to cut the pieces of material to do this this way. I can't wait to make a mat for my sewing machine which often slips about. Thank you Rachel.
Wow, Rachel! That's brilliant. I never would've thought of doing this in a million years, but it's quite cool. These would make such great placemats and is such a great idea for those crumbs of expensive, beautiful fabrics.
Thank you for the tutorial! When you were cutting up the fabric I said out loud that looks fun, and then you added it was! That turned out so beautiful. I don’t save small scraps but looks like that’s going to change! You’re a delight to watch and listen to. Thanks for another project that will make a great gift.
Какая интересная идея из мелких остатков! Мне очень понравилось. Можно попробовать сшить одеяло из множества подобных квадратов, только внутри заменить на утеплитель. Можно в каждый квадрат вложить поверх таких остатков ткани аппликации - дерево, домики, цветы. Потом такие квадраты сшить между собой. Обязательно попробую :) За идею спасибо! ❤
I love your project. You make it look so easy. I love your technique, and the scraps you used really came together, even the your border. I love your backing, so cute. Thank you for sharing. Have a wonderful day your western Washington state neighbor.
I just ordered soft & stable and some large Organza bags that I can cut to use, because i didn't want to buy yards of it. I'm going to make a pad for my sewing machine to sit on..I'm so excited! Thanks for the tutorial. 😀 🌻🌞
What a lovely idea, I save my little crumbs too. I use them as an alternative to stuff toys etc., I only save the cotton crumbs... which is what I mainly use...but others are saved to use in crafty/art work for my grandchildren. Waste not want not ❤
Super dramatic! A lovely tutorial with a Wowsers! end result. Would make a fun project for ornaments, stockings, etc. to hang for Christmas. Endless possibilities with whatever colorway chosen. Thank you for sharing this creative idea.
I was wondering why you were cutting those scraps so many times until you started putting them between the tulle (netting) and the foam. Then I thought "Well that's brilliant! LOVE this! I will definitely be trying it! 💖💖💖💖💖💖💖
I have seen this done before by an American lady, i have lots of liberty scraps and will so try making something with them with this method, thanks for the inspiration🤩
You are jusy delightful! I have been saving all my ends of pearl cotton when doing my wool applique. They also would look nice added to the top layer. How much fun it will be to play with all my crumbs. Great video.
Wow, this blew my mind! I assumed you were going to carefully lay down each piece, one by one, but then you attacked them with the rotary cutter and shoved them inside, hahahaha! The result is gorgeous and the tulle hardly visible. I’m going to rescue all the crumbs from all my bins and try this! Delightful!
🤣🤣 it was so satisfying to cut them like that and ram them in there 🤣
Me, too! How fun and charming. Thank you!
Yeah! Very clever! I loved it! ❤
Me too. I couldn’t believe you were chopping them up into tiny bit. The result is amazing. I love it, and didn’t look too difficult to do. 😀
Me too.what a clever idea and sew easy for a beginner like me😊
I have been sewing for almost 70 years and that was one of the most amazing things I've ever seen
That’s what it’s all about :)
Normally, I think people talk too much with their tutorials. But my goodness, you have the sweetest voice! I thoroughly enjoyed your chattering as you worked away. Thank you for the tutorial!
No. She does talk too much. Get on with it. We don’t need to be charmed.
@elaineedgar2913 thank you Elaine, don't worry.. you didn't charm us with your comment either
Her voice is the right pitch, and she has a gentle voice that's natural and quite frankly very enjoyable ❤ she would be great reading out loud books, plus there was no annoying music either to put up with. 😊 just lovely and really pleasant ☺️ ❤
Over here across the pond in the good old USA and I enjoyed listening to your tutorial. Thanks for sharing this. What a nice sister you have.
@@elaineedgar2913who peed in your cheerios? You can mute the video. Or not watch at all. Trolls are everywhere, even on quilting videos.
Can you imagine HOW BEAUTIFUL in sparkly Christmas fabrics! OMG!!!
Oh Christmas scraps would be beautiful, especially sprakly that you say. Good Idea, thanks
With little bits of tinsel or a few mylar confetti stars scattered or bits of ribbon. Oh, my golly, you could do A LOT with this idea!
Wow, I’m watching from Nova Scotia, Canada and think what you have created is terrific. At 75, I’ve decided to take sewing up again and will definitely be giving this a go. You are a wonderful teacher…..thanks so much!
I too and a Canadian, from Ontario. Hi!
I have a whole huge jar of fabrics I cut up into "crumbs" and wasn't sure what to do with them. Now I know! Thank you Rachel!
I'm in Michigan and 75 and I'm going to do this, what fun. After working my 2 jobs lol
Hi from Dartmouth NS
Mind blown when you took the rotary cutter to the crumbs. I couldn't fathom how you would stitch them together.
A very creative technique. Now I'm off to salvage my "too small" scraps from the bin and see what magic they'll make. Thank you!
I completely agree with you Linda. I wasn't sure how the bits were going to be joined either but was pleasantly surprised. Love it and can't wait to try.
This was beautifully presented. Clear instructions that were shown slowly so we could keep up. No wild back ground music which was nice to have, just nice AMSR moments. Also your speaking voice was so calm and comforting.
I agree!! Her slow, clear explanations, perfect camera angles, and demonstration were so good! Makes me want to try this out NOW!
Really nice. Wish my mom was still around, she always hated to toss out even the tiniest of scraps, I think she would have loved this technique.
First, you're lovely to listen to.
Second, I've always felt so silly for saving all my tiny scraps, so thank you for justifying that for me.😊
I love how you tucked the Care Bears in there. It's adorable.
You and your sister earn accolades for this approach. It is just awesome.
This is the prettiest and easiest way to use crumbs that I've ever seen. I try to not waste any materials when working on projects. I send my thanks to you and your thoughtful sister you made you the first one. God bless you.
I could not have predicted how it would come out! It really is a lovely blended watercolor effect and the quilting/padding makes it just look like it's so cozy and would be wonderful to touch!
I LOVE that quilt of houses on the side wall!!!
This is genius, I could see making a bag this way.
Absolutely!
Great video. The bag making was on one of the episodes of the 2024 The Great British sewing Bee on BBC
I BELIEVE this is the MOST easiest and PERFECT project to use scraps;esp of a collection that we love to buy, just CAN'T throw those lovely pieces away. ❤❤❤❤ Huge THANK you for your sister's creation and you sharing.
You are a natural on camera .what a great idea … I’m on it!
Ohmygoodness! What a find! I've seen other confetti techniques, but not one as simple as this. No nonsense - just do it! Eye catching idea. Thank you so much Rachel.
I like the way you attached the binding from the front to the back, for beginners like me it helps to conceal any bloopers along the way and the corner miters (US) lay flat.
Lovely! And what a thoughtful sister. I guess I’ll start saving those tiny random bits!
Now you have a project to use them for!
It's a great project Rachel. I will definitely give it a go. I hate to throw out even the tiniest of scraps. Thank you.
Hello🇨🇦
That is such a great way to use up the little scraps. I loved how the bears really gave it character. Thank you for showing us how to do confetti crumb quilting Rachel. xx
What a lovely use of scraps.This will be a lovely project for my grandchildren and me to make together! Thank you so much!
You never cease to amaze me, it's just magic how you make something awesome from scraps.

Haha I thought crumbing was about sewing little pieces of fabric together. This blew my mind. ❤ thanks!
Rachel you have such a soft demeanour and a pleasure to watch. Your placemat turned out so cute. You know I’m gonna have to try one for sure so easy. It’s just yeah I don’t know. I got Christmas projects. I’ll save those bits and pieces and give it a whirl. Thank you so much for sharing with us..👍❤️🙂
Unique Christmas mats from the other projects?
I loved the way that you put the bears random in the sea of material. So awesome.
Brilliant. I loved this. Can't wait to make it once my broken wrists have healed !!!!!
Poor you. I have one broken wrist and I find it very difficult to do things. Hope that your wrists get better soon 😘Xx
Wow Rachel what a talented lady you are. Thank you for sharing and being such an inspiration, Diane x
Absolutely beautiful, Rachel! I love how you added the bears on top! Super sweet! And, the quilting is the cherry on top of the sundae!! 💟
At last someone has got a sewing machine like mine Husqvana they are magic. Lovely use of bits, thank you Marilyn
They really are!
I agree, love mine too
You've explained something I've been struggling with for years - mitred corners with a binding! Thank you so much - beautifully described. I shall be redoing all my cat mats.
I can hardly believe this! I would never have thought of using the mesh and just throwing the scraps in there! Brilliant!!
So beautiful
What a brilliant idea. No glue. Looks lovely.
What a lovely and fun project. My plan is to make a placemat "pocket" for each granddaughter and let them stuff away to their hearts content using bits of fabric, lace, ribbon and yarn.

I’ve been cutting up all my scraps and using them in pillows. I like this idea too. Very nice.
This is the craziest most amazing thing I’ve seen in awhile!! 😳🤩 I’m so impressed!! 💕
What a fun and simple project. This is going to be something I do for sure. I love the idea of a sewing machine mat.
OH WOW!!!! NIFTY!!!! I LOVE THIS!!!!
love all the crafts works behind you
I am SHOCKED! I love it. 😍
Thank you for sharing this wonderful project. All the scraps will not be wasted at all. Confetti placemat is a good idea.♥️
Such a cute and clever little mat!
what a lovely place mat, I have a basket full of scraps sitting behind my sewing machine, now I know how to use them up. Thank you for sharing.
I will definitely be trying this with my small scraps, of which I have plenty! Always knew I'd find a pretty purpose for them. Thank you 😊 💓
This is the BEST idea I have seen for using up scraps!! Thank you!
I loved hearing you say fussy cut!
Wow Your idea is as beautiful as you. You stitch very neatly too.
Rachel I love this project. I can’t wait to make one! What a wonderful sister to gift one to you. I have pink organza with sparkles it will make a great gift. The quilting lines just had that magical touch. I love it! Happy stitching.
Very creative!! Would have never guessed how beautiful this project would turn out THANK YOU for sharing!!
When you were putting the fabric inside the netting I really didn't think it would work, but it was lovely. Thank you for the tutorial.
Absolutely delightful. Thank you.
Oh crumbs......that was absolutely delightful. I would never have thought to cut the pieces of material to do this this way. I can't wait to make a mat for my sewing machine which often slips about. Thank you Rachel.

Oh I love your house quilt on the wall❤
Very creative! I had not heard of this type of quilt. It came out very nice. I just may try this with my scraps. Thank you.
A wonderful new twist on crumb quilting! Awesome!
Quilt salad! Yummy Yummy! What a fun method.
Love it. Especially the reference to the rag market. Very clear instructions. Thanks
I’m going to start saving my bits and give it a go. Those bears are so cute!
What a clever idea. Thank you for sharing and explaining it so well.

Just found this channel. This will be Christmas gifts for my quilting group to go under their machines. Thanks
Beautiful Mat and the quilting really is highlighted.
I love the lamp shade in the background
