Swooning Closer

.... to a finish

Swoon-along

I had a bit of a productive day with four more blocks finished

On my first few blocks, I cut and worked on them one by one but, for these last four I cut them all out and chain pieced. For some time I felt like I was getting no where but then at the end they all came together quickly.

Now for a closer look ....


Print paired with Kona Cotton - "School Bus"



Print paired with Kona Cotton - "Dark Violet"



Print paired with Free Spirit Designer Solid "Red Plum"



Print paired with Moda Bella Solids "Etchings Slate"

Now for the next bit .......



Settling on a layout


I have some quilting ideas running though my head also so hopefully more on that soon.

Happy sewing, Sharon

    I love them all, but especially the one with the light pink print - I can't believe how quickly you've got them all finished - I look forward to seeing your quilting ideas.

    You have done a marvellous job on all the blocks. They are stunning and it will be a very striking quilt when you have finished.

    I bought this pattern a while ago and after seeing your blocks I think I'll have to dig it out and join in the swoon-a-long.
    PS Of course you can use an image from my blog.

    They're all gorgeous but I love the green/purple block and the orange block. You've really whizzed through these...I'm still looking forward to making the first one, still plodding along on some WIPs!
