There hasn't been much sewing going on lately other than the three blog hops I participated in and Halloween costumes, but this week I was able to sneak in some 15 minute intervals of sewing time and got some progress on a couple projects.
First I cut and sewed together some more orange strips.
When I originally made my mini quilt for the Wicked Blog hop I had 10 wedges left over.
I played around with the leftovers and added some black sashing.
Then I decided a lot more wedges would make great throw size Halloween quilt that I can use next year.
So I made 6 more oranges strips. They are all pressed and ready to be cut into wedges.

From each strip I can cut enough wedges to make 2 spider blocks.
After I sewed and pressed my orange strips together I got back to cutting out my fabrics for my leaf block.
I cut most of the pieces to make 19 more leaf blocks.

While I was cutting and trimming I noticed that my Kaleido-Ruler is the same size as the corner strips on my leaf block. When I made the first block I paper pieced these corners, but I am thinking about sewing strips and then cutting wedges for this block as well. If I do that though, I will have opposite wedges that don't go in the block so I will have to come up with something to do with the extra wedges.
