I was at a quilt retreat in Shipshewana, IN from Wednesday through Saturday. I took some of my charity baby quilts with me, and completed this one by adding the binding. The Spiderman blocks are left over from a twin sized quilt I made for a grandson. The blocks finish at 5 in. square, and the quilting my long arm quilter chose was perfect - stars and spiderwebs.
Here is a close up:
It measures 45 in. x 45 in. square, and was very easy to make. I like three coordinating fabrics in a baby quilt - it gives me enough contrast and interest without too much difficulty.
Here's the complete quilt:
And another closeup of a block, with the spiderweb in it:
The backing, showing all the machine quilting:
It feels so good to get some of these tops that were in my pile of "just tops" completed. This one will go to a charity.
What did you work on this week? I didn't get to everyone's blog post last week, to read about the pictures, but the pictures were great! Have a happy Thanksgiving Thursday, those who are celebrating in the USA. And have a happy quilty week to all!

Love that Spiderman quilt. It's a great idea to keep baby quilts simple but with lots of contrast.
Baby/Small quilts can be so satisfying, fast and fun color combo and quilting there!
Happy Thanksgiving and thank you for linky party. I know several little ones that would be thrilled with your finish.
