I went to this site and had a heck of a time finding the Spiderweb quilt. I looked around for quite a while and then found it. I printed it out and then went out of the site to see if I could find it again. Couldn't! Then I looked again and found a list of quilts at the right side of the home page, quite a way down the page. There is the list of quilts in alphabetical order. That way I got back into the Spiderweb site.

I don't cut up my scraps. If I would have them cut into squares, how would I make a string quilt of any kind? I cut up scraps as I need them. With confetti quilts, sometimes the piece is just a little too small. Maybe a half inch of triangle is missing at one corner. You'd be surprised how much it takes to fill in that half inch! The piece needs to be at least one inch. But I cheat sometimes. The smaller my pieces are, the smaller I make my seams. Many of my scrap quilts have 1/8 inch seams in many places.

I love using up my scraps.
Happy scrapping!
