Sooooo, my friend Jenn and I wanted to make a quilt together. We thought these spider web blocks were pretty cool. I made a few and she made a few (she was cranking them out much faster than me). I decided they were too time consuming and we decided to pick something else ;) But, I'm a finisher and I had these four blocks and didn't want them to sit in a drawer for 10 years, so I sewed them together and hand quilted it. Here's the end result!
I'm thrilled with it, it's sitting on our table as we speak and it's so much fun to look at. Plus, it reminds me of Jenn, so these blocks are fulfilling their destiny after all :)
It's been awhile since I've participated in
Sew & Tell Fridays, maybe because I've been a little preoccupied with house stuff, but it's fun to peruse everyone else's finishes! Puts me in a sewing mood. If you're here from Sew & Tell, thanks for coming :)
Cute spiderweb! They certainly are time consuming but they make up so nicely!
