Not much seems to have changed since last week on my design wall. I have made quite a few more kites, but there are still lots of empty spaces!
I've moved some of the webs around and still have to make a few more changes before I'm happy with the layout, but on the whole, it's going well. It's also a lot faster than I originally envisaged, as I thought it might take me a year or two to finish:). The fabric on the floor is a flannelette I bought to possibly use for the backing - little old fashioned telephones. It might be a bit cute for this quilt, but the colours work.
Piecing of the kites is very wasteful, but tonight, I figured out a way to use less fabric, so I'm happy with that. Here is my rubbish after making two kite sets. Hopefully I won't have as much left over from now on.
I'm linking up to the Freshly Pieced WIP Wednesday at http://www.freshlypieced.com/2013/05/i-feel-like-broken-record-lately-since.html
Love your spiderweb!
ReplyDeleteThat's awesome! I love the colors. It's always great to find a new way to be less wasteful :)
ReplyDeleteWow- this is so eye catching. Can't wait to see more progress.
ReplyDeleteWow... what an amazing quilt. I love what you have done with the white space.
ReplyDeleteThanks everyone - I don't think I need too much encouragement to finish this quilt
