    This is my first attempt at creating my own pattern. Yes, I know its a REALLY simple pattern, but I'm still pretty new at this. I did the binding on it kinda bass ackwards. I took the candy corn border and wrapped it to the back. It's also my first somewhat successful attempt at something other than straightline quilting, and I'm pretty pleased with the way the web turned out. I made this on my Singer Simple 3116, with just my 1/4" presser foot and my standard presser foot, so I guess the little bit of buckling in the backing with my quilting is to be expected. At least that's the story I'm telling. LOL. Now, I'm looking for more patterns for the Halloween and Christmas fabrics I've been buying lately. Any ideas?

    Your web turned out really good! It really sets off the center of your quilt. Great job!

    Thank you for all the compliments. I am playing with an idea for my Christmas Birds fabrics now. Don't feel bad Bailey. I had lots of cravings for Candy Corn while I was making it too. The ones with the Brown/Chocolate flavor to them. LOL.
