PINK! i think June was pink for RSC? i made about 30+ crumb blocks. (they're trimmed at 6½", finish at 6" and not all of them are pictured.)
even though i made granddaughter E a starry crumb quilt for her Christmas present, there were still lots of bits of pink in my jar.
i've been making crumb blocks in the COM for years now, and i've made lots of quilts with them.
if you really want to go down a rabbit hole, you can click here, which is all of my posts about crumb blocks and crumb quilts gathered in one spot...
i'm borrowing some of the suggested layouts from the ScrapSnappers quilt along. last week was a good week for my girls A & B to do {homeschooling} art and lay out some quilts with my large stack of crumb blocks.
B especially got really into it! and i'm pretty thrilled too, with how they turned out.
right now their quilts are in the flimsy stage, hanging in the sewing room closet. maybe we'll finish them this winter.
we actually did 4 quilts with the crumb blocks (forgot to take a picture of the fourth, which was diagonally arranged rainbowy rows.) the above one will be for donation- location/recipient still TBD.
and believe it or not, after doing 4 quilts, there is still a stack of crumb blocks about 10" high!
don't forget to go see all the other RSC goodies this week. thanks for stopping! and keep scrolling down- i added a few more posts and pictures that you might have missed.

INCREDIBLE!!! You are such a prolific block maker, Jennifer. Good thinking on getting the girls to help with the designing to use up some of the Crumb blocks you've made and brilliant idea to use some of the Snap Scrap layouts for with other blocks!
Those crumb blocks are just great! Love your girls' layout ideas, too.
I think it's wonderful that the girls want to help and sew too! Always great to get a few opinions when figuring out layouts.
