I bought Camille's Swoon pattern months ago but never felt like tackling this quilt even one bit. And then, a few days ago, I suddenly knew it was time to Swoon. I found my pattern, ordered some fabric (I'm using Sketch in mist grey for the background), and last night I made my first block.
I'm in love !!!!
I think this will be a perfect quilt for our bed, I'm even planning on hand quilting it this summer.
What fun projects are you working on?
Looks beautiful! Glad you caught the swoon bug :) I'm hoping to get started on one of the forest quilt along blocks today, they look tricky!
ReplyDeleteoh I love a Swoon!! Mine is on our guest bed, and I love that it's there to welcome our guests!
ReplyDeleteLooking great so far! I had a lot of fun making my swoon. Each block felt like a finished project in and of itself, so it's a really satisfying project!
ReplyDeletethis is going to be a smart looking swoon! i'm taking camille's craftsy class and will get to this eventually.
ReplyDeleteOh so pretty! The colors remind me of madrona road.

I love it! I loved making a swoon quilt, it is so fun to make giant blocks. I can't wait to see more!
ReplyDeleteLovely! I need to restart my swoon - I've totally fallen out of love with my fabric choices, but you've reminded me how much I love the block design :o)
ReplyDeleteThat is too funny!! I bought that pattern a while ago too and have yet to make it. It really is one of my favorites. I love those blocks. I honestly can't tell you why I've put it off. Maybe sometime soon!! Good luck with yours!
ReplyDeletePerfect fabrics! I really must pull mine back out, i've done six of the nine blocks and kinda lost steam. Can't wait to see the rest of yours!
ReplyDeleteYes, definitely hand quilt it! I like how you've used just one print on this block.
ReplyDeleteI got the Swoon Bug too! I'm on block #7 only 3 more to go!
ReplyDeleteAh, the Swoon. I enjoyed it so much. Your fabric choices are beautiful!
ReplyDeleteI'm working on Swoon too! I bought the kit a couple of years ago and I started it at Easter. All my blocks are together. I'm now piecing the rows together.
ReplyDeletemakes me remember I still have some blocks left (3) to sew before the big quilt top could be assembled... Only started this in Januar 2011... ehem...
ReplyDeleteI have fabric that I think is perfect for Swoon that I haven't had time to get to. One of these days. I think your block looks great. Am looking forward to seeing the rest of the quilt!
ReplyDeletePretty, pretty!
ReplyDeleteYour Swoon block looks great. Hand quilting on a Swoon quilt would look wonderful.
ReplyDeleteAddicting, right? I have the blocks completed for a Swoon quilt for me (9 blocks) and one for a charity donation (16 blocks). And I STILL love this block!
