I hope everyone is ready for some spooky fun tonight.
Today is my day for the Wicked Blog Hop.
I made a spider web quilt block and turned it into a mini quilt.
Which I plan to use as a mini table topper...
Or even a Jack-O-Lantern backdrop.
I had planned on photographing my whole process,
but the camera was quickly forgotten as I got engrossed in the project.
I did get remember to few shots that I can share.
I started out by sewing eight 1 inch strips together.
Then I used my Kaleidoscope ruler to cut out eight wedges.
I sewed the wedges together and added the black border.
Then I couched on some thick black thread on the seam lines.
The couched thread was originally the last step on my drawing,
but as I stared at it, I felt like it was missing something,
So I added some ghosts.
Then I quilted it up and took it out into the night for its spooky photo shoot.
Make sure you check out all the other Wicked posts for the day
