I'm Swooning

When the swoon craze first swept through, I snatched the pattern up super quick. And then never made one. I have no idea why. I love the pattern, maybe I just never had the perfect fabric. After getting a ton of Loulouthi for just 4.20 a yard, I knew a swoon was necessary. I haven't really sewn anything that didn't have a 'purpose' in quite some time, so I dedicated this weekend to my Loulouthi swoon. And that is the reason I have no floor left.



There are swoons everywhere!


Even over here! There are actually only 9 of them, but they are huge. 24.5" square to be exact. I am really loving them. Definitely out of my color and pattern comfort zone, but somehow it is working for me. Only 3 left to piece, then I can finish the top! What did you last sew that was just for you?

  1. Congrats on the progress. I too swooped up the pattern right away. I even have the perfect fabric... but for some reason I just haven't started it yet. I think I have too many other projects already started to even consider that yet :) Yours is looking amazing cant wait to see it finished

  3. WOW! You did 6 of them in one weekend? That is dedication! I think they look great. My Swoon is just for me - I'm 4 blocks in. Have you seen the Swoon 2013 group on Flickr? It just started up and it's all about finishing the Swoon :)
