I know yesterday I went a little nuts with a just quilt it! post. Having done that, I would also like to point out that there’s something to be said for knowing when to say when. Exhibit A:
I really love the way there’s only one full “web” in this quilt. It’s hard work making spider webs, and this layout really shows off the wonderful craftsmanship. And I think the size is just perfect for showing off all of the gorgeous prints – prints that might have gotten lost in a larger piece.
According to the blog of Ms. GoingSewCrazy, she worked on this for a month and decided it wasn’t going to get any bigger. Which makes sense – it’s a complicated, labor-intensive block, and while it can make great use of scraps, it still requires a lot of them.
So she quilted and bound. And that was that.
Is this going to cover her bed? Probably not, unless she stumbles upon some cool Alice-in-Wonderland style pharmaceuticals. Is is awesome nonetheless? Absolutely yes!
