Default Spider Webs in quilts

A friend of mine just showed me a quilt that had a realistic spider webs stitched by hand on it. I seem to think that there the webs represent something, but just what I don't know. Does anyone know any info about how these webs came to be on quilts, or the history of it? It seems so odd to me to have a web on a quilt, but I figure must be a reason for its use.
