Swoonin! Swoonin'! Swoonin' down the river!

Block 5 done!  It's like a sickness.  An obsession.  I just can't stop.  I said I was going to take a break from making Swoon blocks.  And I did.  For less than 24 hours.  I got my Postage Stamp top done and then I picked block 5 right up and started in.

The only thing about making these blocks is that they are very time consuming.  At least for me.  I stepped into my sewing room around noon and got the block completed by 3:30.  And that is only ONE block and I did the prep work the night before!  Lots of seams.  Lots.  Of.  Seams.  One a week is good enough for me.  But everything is lining up so nicely and no cut off points.  I am proud and I can't wait to get these blocks done, quilted, bound and on my bed!


Enjoy your day!
Jen :)

  6. Glad to see I'm not the only one who takes forever to make one block. 3-3.5 hours on average. Yours looks great!

    Any thoughts about quilting this one?
