So happy to have a quilt sandwich prepared for lots of hand quilting! My pezzy spiderweb top is put together and I couldn't help myself - had to do a little bit of quilting right away...
The blocks are quite large, about 15" square and with a more narrow and pointed star than in my tutorial (on the sidebar). Lately the concept of SCALE keeps coming to mind. So I find myself fascinated with larger blocks. So far the 15" square ruler is my biggest ruler, and that stops me from going any bigger...
Sandy Klop's pezzy print and some of her dots makes the stars of the spiderweb. They are all different. This choice is very inspired by Katy Jones lovely spiderweb quilt...
Quite colorful, I dare say... And hopefully it will take me A LONG TIME to finish hand quilting this one. Trying to tell myself to pace the hand quilting. I love that part too much, it makes it hard to stop in time and keep my shoulder pain free. This one has the thin cotton batting (quilters dream request). Aiming for a lovely wrinkly texture after washing it up.
Wish you a colorful wednesday!

I had to smile at the "I hope it takes me a long time" -- we are usually in such a rush to finish things so it was refreshing to read your words.
