USING IT UP, et al

I've decided on the raspberry fabric for the
first border; I want to add another
border that will be pieced...deciding
on a pattern 
and using scraps again...

Thanks πŸ’‹so much for all of you who 
gave me their favorite of the four
choices--I am hoping to incorporate
some of those other 3 fabrics in the
next border...

File under "No New Projects--until 
I finish
my WIPS month":

Well,.....
My excuse for beginning this spider web
is that I am actually "using up" all
the leftover pinks and peaches from
"Sunrise, Sunset"!! πŸ˜πŸ˜€πŸ˜‚
instead of stuffing them in a bag
to be forgotten....
Really, I can rationalize almost
anything when it comes to 
"starting" a new "must make"
quilt.  😲
Also, I've made 3 other Spiders and
they were all gifted...and 
I ALSO  found a trove of 
LEFTOVER
Wacky Web papers from those 
projects--

So, in my mind, at least,
this is re-using and recycling
[and ... JUST A FUN project hahaha.]

These are such fun to sew...with the
limited fabrics leftover that went together
so well on SS, I figure they should all
play well together...

***********************
I am continuing with
my hand quilting on Christmas Ojos--
on the last round of blocks--
not too many left;)))
But I am on a few days of rest 
for my hands and shoulders...
[hence another excuse--uh--  "need" to
make the Spider Web ;)))]

We finally got some rain overnight
.01" --big whup!! πŸ’§North and West
of us received tons of rain...
It is a steamy 73.9 degrees
with a dewpoint
of 73.3--like a huge
SAUNA out there...ugh!!

Stay cool...
