Once upon a time… I happened upon THIS fantabulous cake.
And: Instead of cake, my brain said quilt. A rag quilt. For Nolan’s birthday.
(He loves Spiderman)
(And Batman)
(And approximately 17,642 other super heroes whose names I never manage to keep straight)
So I copied redesigned the Spiderman cake into a rag quilt appliqué.
And surrounded him with red and blue rag quilt squares.
I’m not going to give you a full tutorial, cuz there are lots of really good ones already out there in blog land.
I do love some really fluffy seam allowances. So to that end, I cut my squares much bigger than most tutorials - 9.5”, with a 1.5” seam allowance when sewing them together.
The center square is 16” x 21.5” before sewing.
Couldn’t forget a new Spidey pillowcase made from THIS tutorial on Made :)

great idea! i love the superhero thing!
This is so awesome! I'll have to make this sometime. A little boy would love it.
That is just awesome! My son would LOVE that!
How fun. I bet your son is loves his new quilt and pillowcase - I know my boys would.
Also wishing that my brain turned cakes into quilts. Not only would I probably loose some weight, but there'd be a lot more sewing going on here:)
That is super cute!! :)
love meeting fellow crafty people!
Cheers!
