Spiderweb Done!
I finally, finally finished that spiderweb quilt. I had a little help with the binding:
I went with a plain broadcloth backing to avoid problems with adding bulky seams, and I ended up just stippling the whole thing instead of doing anything super fancy. I'd debated hand quilting it, but I lack the skill and patience for that sort of thing, and then I tried a pass at straight stitches, but it was too bulky. Stippling was the best option, because I could completely avoid those needle-breaking spiderweb centers and hide any areas that didn't sit flat.
Anyway, I like how it turned out, and I'm glad I finished it.
