Ok played some more lol....and this is what I have done so far and I like it this way. I have light, med and dark values and warm and cool temperature. I like the squaresness /pointiness of it. I will continue to build on it to at least 60x60. I sure hope the patches down fall off the wall lol..

I made tuna salad and a veggie salad, had lunch and now I will do some more. I think it took somebody some kinda figuring out to make this Swoon. I guess you could pick a block and figure out to do it this way. I will give it a try when I get caught with this and my other project, Maybe next month. The only other quilt I can compare this swoon quilt to is the Broken Star..I found another broken star in block base that would work quite well. I will put it on the back burner and maybe check it out later when I take a break.

Rosy, I like your changes. It's no longer a swoon, but you made it your own! BTW, this is what the original swoon block looks like. The scrappy swoon was based on this original shape:

Oh ok SB, now I understand about the Swoon. The block reminded me of a carpenter's wheel.

There ya go Rosy- you got your swoon on! :D LOL
Loving all the swoonies I'm seeing so far. I still have not been able to start mine as I had a request come in for one that needs to be done ASAP. I will make one of these beauties soon. |
I love this, I am working on it right now lol.....

It looks beautiful Rosy! That's definitely a Swoon.

Thanks Ladies and iron is turned off, machine off, music is playing, drinking tea. Quilt is done lol. Except for putting it together and that is nothing. I had four blocks left from when I was going to change it and just a few squares. I think I will make a couple pillows and I'll put this quilt on my bed for the summer. Let me go measure...74x74, I subtracted the seams for sewing. I will put a 1 inch border to keep everything square and then will give it a think.
