Your Mom's swoon quilt is lovely! You are a good daughter.

Oooh nominations!!
ReplyDeleteI love all your swoon blocks!! And the blue and yellow worked out fantastically. I look forward to see the soon to come, I'm sure, finished product :-). It also inspires me to get my rear in gear and get started on my own Swoon!
ReplyDeleteThat yellow and blue swoon quilt is beyond beautiful! It just might be my favorite swoon of all times.
ReplyDeleteOh! The blue and yellow is so cheerful and bright. It will look fabulous at a beach house.
ReplyDeleteWouldn't you love to know what it is that the brains of the swoon-makers have in common that makes them fall for this design. In any case, I've seen so many beautiful Swoon quilts, and yours are wonderful too--I'm looking forward to seeing the details of the quilting. (You do realize, don't you, that blue and yellow quilts are almost as addicting as the Swoon blocks?!) ;-D
ReplyDeleteFor real?? Finish machine!
ReplyDeleteThe yellow and blue are gorgeous. Very provencal.
ReplyDeleteI love blue and yellow quilts. Very pretty.
