SWOON!

Emilee and I decided to make the Swoon blocks during CLUB SEW on Friday. I had fallen in love with Terrain, but didn't know what to do with it. When I was looking for 3 fat quarters to make it, I just fell for the pink/terrain, white combo. Emilee and I made the Swoon block using the Lazy Flying Geese ruler. It made making flying geese and HST's so much easier, but we did have to do a bit of figuring which wasn't easy considering there were about 15 sewing at Club Sew on Friday night. Now that I have it together though, I'm wondering if the pink is too overwhelming in that position and maybe I should be using the terrain and pink in opposite positions. Any thoughts or ideas? I'm thinking I could pick up a fat quarter tonight and try it the other way? What do you think?

I went to the shop on Monday at lunch and picked up the rest of the Terrain, all the Organic white they had, and a fat quarter of each of the other colors in terrain that I want to use for the blocks.

I think the block is beautiful, as is, and will look really sharp when the variety of colored blocks are combined!

I think the block looks great as is. Terrain is so pretty in both the pink and the blue. Love it.
