Hi again! So I finally got around to stitching all the blocks together for my Summer House Swoon block! Here she is ...
I used the Twinkle Tonal in Bright Blue and the Cabbage Rose in Robins Egg for this one. Love that combo! A few things about this pattern ...
First, these blocks are BIG. (I didn't crop out my toes in the photo just so you could see the scale.) I mean, I thought "24 inches... that's a big block", but yea ... seems a lot bigger in real life than I imagined! LOL Hooray for needing less blocks for a big quilt. ;-)
Second, there are a LOT of points to match up. Next time, I think I will press everything open and spend more time trimming and pinning so everything lines up better.
All in all, I love how it turned out even with a few imperfections. :-)
Happy Sewing!
I love this pattern and block! Can't wait to see yours finished!
ReplyDeleteLove this pattern! I have made a couple of "mini" swoon quilts of just one block. Seems to be lovely no matter what you do! :-)
ReplyDeleteIt IS fun to have big blocks, isn't it?!
Oh lovely colors! This is such a cute quilt!
ReplyDeleteCan you make one of those blocks using 2 fat quarters and some white?
ReplyDeleteHi Julie - Yes, the Swoon block requires 2 FQ and approx a half yard of white (will have some leftovers from all).
