Thanks everyone!

Rhonda, it is going to be as big as the box of fabric allows! lol no really though I am going to make as many blocks as I can using my "scrap box". Then put them all together and it will be what it is! I am hoping for at least 72 blocks which would make the quilt about 54x60 and a few more blocks for the back!

Ladybug, I used this idea http://quiltville.com/spiderweb.shtml (I love that site) my blocks are smaller and the white portion is also smaller! I am also putting my blocks together in a different way because I want them staggered in each row instead of in colums like on the site. Mine will also NOT have the borders!

Gwyn, my husband is always nagging at me about how much I work trying to make something look "just right". He knows better than to nit pick anything I am doing because I know how bad his golf game truely is! lol

Thanks again everyone!

This is a great project! I can't wait until we can see it finished. Wonky is AWESOME! :) There's never enough nap time for the little ones, is there?

Oh! How interesting! And lovely! I've never seen that block / pattern before. My husband would really like it, I think, especially if I used similar colours to the ones you've chosen - so I'll have to add it to my list of "someday" projects...

Very Nice!!! I like the wonky style, you have more fun sewing and less worrys over matching... The overall effect remains the same! I really like that you added the white for another visual interest! :D :D :D

What a cool pattern that is! I like the way it makes a block when you put the next row on. Very cool! Now that is the normal spider web pattern? Or a specialty one?

I have been working with scraps today too. I am putting a quilted craft tote and crochet hook holder together for my friend for christmas.
