I have wanted to make a halloween spiderweb for a long time. Pairing up Denyse Schmidt's Hope Valley and Alexander Henry's The Ghastlies, I decided to give it a try...
I have modified my recipe / tutorial for this one:
Using bigger blocks: starting with a 17" square.
Making the stars more narrow.
The spiderweb blocks are still fun to sew. Playing with different ways of combining the fabric, aiming for good contrast between the strips...
Picture is taken on a grey, overcast october morning. The trees outside are starting to turn orange. Fall is here...

Love those fabrics and the sneaky cats! The adjusted blocks look great!
Looking great! Are you going from orange to lime green? My favourite.
Spiderweb is perfect for Halloween. Very fun!
Another gorgeous quilt in the making. I really love how you're letting the colours do the work.
i'm not usually a fan of holiday-themed quilts but THIS steals my heart!
LOVE this new kind of spider web. How innovative you are !! And your fabric combinations are beautiful!!!
fall is wonderful!!! this quilt is stunning. what could be more perfect than a halloween spiderweb quilt.gotd
Terrific. I love these. I would love a spider web wallhanging for Halloween. I have the fabrics but not the time right now.
Looks great!! I love your slight modifications to the size - it really makes the 'webs' stand out. I think alot of times on these quilts my eyes drift first to the stars - but this way really showcases the webs :D
It's perfect! Love the fabric and color combos!
Love it, love it, love it!!! Who would have thought...the green with the orange? Nice...I can't wait to see it finished!
LOVE IT! This is so stink'n cute!
FANTABULOUS!! The narrow strips really make this. It's a wonderful Halloween quilt w/o being so "halloweeny".
Wow, another beautiful quilt. I really like the orange!
this is a great quilt. Makes me actually want to make a spider web quilt. Your colors are very nice.
I like the 'squarish' spiderwebs, and your fabric choices are great!
I love the way you are moving from orange to green. Oh, and I got some of that fabulous pumpkin fabric by Debbie Taylor-Kerman. Yippee!
Love the more square spiderweb shape, perfect for fall and halloween!!!!!!
I love it!!! It's gorgeous!! I love the narrow stars!!! Such a great look! I might just make one like this!!
Love it! The color combination is fantastic!
This is so cool! I reall like the shape of the stars... maybe even better than the usual spiderweb block!
