Encrusted Block for Velia - Spider Time

Work is almost done on Velia's block in the CQI Group, "Encrusted" round robin. I put a spider into the web...but, it is too dark I'm thinking.
 
 
 
So, I decided to un-stitch...and re-stitch with a white head and blue legs. Now, I've never seen a white headed spider with blue legs...but, the block looks better with it this way I'm thinking.
I also got the leaves finished to help give the spiderweb a bit more character and depth.

  2. Kathy, you do such beautiful work. How did you get your spider's legs so straight and tight?
