Still At It

I just can't leave this quilt alone.  No matter how hard I try focusing on other things, I keep coming back to this Spiderweb quilt.  Maybe because I'm so much closer to finishing it.
 Or maybe because I'm having too much fun adding embroidered elements like crazy spiky flowers.
 And french knot butterflies.
Whatever it is, I'm hooked.  Every day I add a little bit more.  Soon it will be time for basting and quilting.

What keeps calling you back this week?

  6. Love it. I wish I was patient enough to embroider. Or get on making my own spider quilt. Sadly I'm just waiting waiting for fabric. And being a mess!
