only 9 blocks left...


...to make a twin size spiderweb quilt.

i cannot wait to see this one come together.
you'd think my scrap basket would be empty by now, but somehow that's not the case.

It's weird, isn't it? I've completed the 9 patches, also made a queen-sized string quilt and cut out squares for another single quilt from my scraps and I STILL can't see the difference in my stash.
Maybe stashes are like the tardis from Dr Who... bigger on the inside than they appear from the outside...

Andi said...

It will be another stunner, I'm sure.

OOOOH! I can't wait either! It's gonna be so pretty! I am tempted to do another one, but the thought of cutting all those "kites" out again is a bit daunting. LOL

A scrap stash is forever, I swear I cannot make a dent in one EVER!
That quilt is going to be so great, can't wait to see it put together, I love that pattern.

I started one years ago and got the top to a lap robe size. Then I gave my sister all my strips (I had done greens and variations of greens) She finished her's and had it quilted. I loved it so much that I made mind larger and got it quilted. The thing was...after giving her all my "left over" strips...I didn't have enough to make mine larger so had to cut more. Such is sisterhood!

Emily said...

I'm excited to see this one sewn up!

Scraps are like guppies - they multiply like crazy!

Imagine how much waste there would be if you'd been throwing them out....

Sneak peeks are always so fun. It will be great to see when it is finished.

Valerie said...

Early on in the process I caught a couple posts about your spiderweb. The color and look, even of the unfinish blocks, inspired me to try my hand at it. My mom is the lucky recipient -- I have 4 blocks left to go on hers. Thank you for such wonderful photography!

free indeed said...

Can't wait to see the finished project! It will be beautiful! I'm collecting my strings and I'm thinking a spider web quilt will be my next one as well....

Stephie @ Narrative Self said...

Your SCRAP box is still not empty?! I'm soooo jelous! What amazes me is that you have enough scraps to always seem to make the colours work together - that must be some big box.

Becky J. said...

Rebekah said...

I can't wait to see how this turns out! you must have a neverending scrap basket :)
