After being inspired by fellow Rebels, I decided I wanted to make a spider quilt. Unfortunately, I didn't ask enough questions to figure out how to build a big one like the ones Patty and LeeAnn made. One thing I knew for sure was I didn't have the right tool and the Joanne sale isn't until next week. So, I decided to have a go at a mini. At first, I was going to make it into an AAQI quilt, but figured out that I didn't want to work that small. I decided to start with 3" squares cut on the diagonal. After some playing around, I decided on 3/4" strings that finish at 1/4". This is how far I have progressed after about ten hours. This will probably finish a bit less than 15" square. It will be the center medallion for a larger quilt done intuition style. What was I thinking!
Happy New Year and joyful quilting in 2013.
