WIP flimsy is done

I have been having fun using up some scraps. They don't seem to be getting any less. I chose a free pattern from Bonnie Hunters blog. The Spider Web...

I have enough papers and kite centres for 3 quilts.
Before I quilt this one I need some more practice with the Westalee rulers...


So I started playing around with some Westalee ruler quilting on my Santa Sack Swap gifts. I have 2 partners so there will be a lot of hidden work, snap shots and secret sewing happening.
You can just see some of the quilting patterns.

I love Bonnie Hunter's patterns and the Spider Web one is great. Your quilt is lovely - you seem to have put it together so fast! So, now you are on a roll when will we expect to see photos of the other two? Just kidding! Love your borders. I have been re-visiting this idea of borders in the last two or three quilts I have made. An idea I found originally in a Gwen Marston book. I like the idea of the inner border going all the way out to the edges of the quilt.
