Spinning our Webs

 Like Charlotte, Vicki and I are slowly, but surely, spinning our webs almost every Tuesday. We find that we usually each get 4 triangle sections finished in our time of sewing together. We both absolutely love the red dots combined with the more traditional and neutral strips in Vicki's blocks.
 My blocks, on the other hand, look like an explosion in a paint factory! But, we are loving that too. 
I'd say we still have quite a few Tuesdays to go before the blocks are all sewn up. They are so addictive to make that it's hard to stop at the end of the day!

    I love the cohesive look of this- scraps with one uniting fabric makes for a very pleasing design! They are both gorgeous!

    They are both super cute, I'm going to have to drag this block back out of hiding. I made 2 for a bee some time ago and haven't looked back.

    Both of these quilts looks fabulous! Sounds like you are both having a wonderful time stitching these blocks together. Special quilts indeed.

    What a great way to describe your quilt - and explosion in a paint factory. Love that imagine. I'm so happy for you and Vicki to be sharing this. Surely a fun time for you to get to spend together on a regular basis.

    love, love, love spiderwebs! I made a double quilt of these, and found I could only do a few at a time. it's a great scrap buster and makes a lovely quilt.

    I am loving watching your quilts come together! They are both so pretty. You may have inspired me to make a spider web quilt of my own!! I also love that you are getting together once a week to sew your blocks - that is what quilting is all about!

    I'm hard pressed to choose a favorite between them. It's so nice to see the color star shapes. It looks like you are using all the same width of strips instead of random. What is the width? I'll be teaching this block to our guild next month and would love to use your images as an example.

    Your spiderwebs are looking great. I just finished Cindy's last night, and I think this block can be made successfully in all sorts of ways. This post is proof.

    Where can I get the pattern for the spider webs. The colors are awesome together. Would love to make this one. I have lots of bright colored scraps I could us up on this one.
