“What you create doesn’t have to be perfect. So what if the eggs are greasy or the toast is burned? Don’t let fear of failure discourage you.”

I Swooned and Swooned and Swooned again!

I loved the Swoon pattern the moment I saw it.  I bought it as soon as it was available and then hemmed and hawed over what fabric I was going to use to make it.  Then I came across some Kumari Garden by Dena Designs while I was reading a book that was set in India.  I added a few other prints and some solids and before I knew it I was piecing together three swoon quilts.




Now, I don't know that I would advise doing it this way, I cut out all the parts for each quilt, pieced all twenty-seven blocks, and put the tops together in succession so they would all be finished at the same time.




I quilted them on my machine, and then bound them all at once.




They now live with three lovely ladies who have given a lot of their time and support to me over the past few years.  I loved making them and loved seeing them go!
