Hearts a Swooning

Isn't nature fascinating? I had to buy this bleeding heart plant. Note that the stem that holds the bloom on the other stem is pink. The swoosh of color in each bloom is amazing. This makes me want to make an art quilt...if only I knew where to begin.

Another swoon block done. Today I'm going to cut the remaining blocks so I can do an assembly line approach. I have so many projects going that I spend lots of time recalling how to do things. It's time to get this one finished.

I'm off to quilt my tumbler top. I have 2 machines set up. One will be for my Swoon production line. The other for whatever whim I currently have.

Swoon Block 2 and Replying to Comments

Still in love with Swoon. Block 2 is done. I wonder if I can get them all done by the end of September. I'm going for king size so I need more blocks than the pattern suggests. I have to be careful while cutting since it uses most of the fat quarter. There is little room for error. Of course, I know that from the cutting error I already made.

I don't think this picture shows the fabric is the star very well. It is elegant. William Morris knows pretty.

My project for this weekend is to figure out how to reply to comments. I've always just gone over to the person's blog. I tried to reply but I was led astray. I hate techy stuff. I want things to just work. But I'll tackle it this weekend.

I'm off to the LQS to buy supplies for the class I'm taking tomorrow, Dancing with Threads. It is based on Ann Fahl's book.

Swooning over Swoon

I love this block. I fell in love with the pattern the first time I saw it. Love, love, love. I didn't realize how big the blocks were until I observed others in blogland as their blocks came together. It is big and so much fun to make.

I chose Willam Morris Tapestry because it would be perfect in my bedroom. I don't know how some of the other color combos are going to look next to the white. We'll see. The blues in this block are so soothing to me.

Iris has taken up crochet. I put it away because I was so lousy. Apparently, she found it.

She has trouble finishing her projects...just like me. Wish she would get it done because that blue would look great in my bedroom along with my Swoon.
