Patchwork Swoon and...

April 15, 2017

The Swoon block is such a favorite of mine and this large Patchwork Swoon is darling! 


I have to say, I love the back and it shines all on its own. =)


I announced on Instagram last week that I got a new sewing machine. A Bernina 765 SE signed by Tula Pink herself. I chose to quilt the Patchwork Swoon using the walking foot and the #4 stitch, a wavy serpentine stitch. I love how it turned out! Eventually I will practice free motion quilting with the BSR (Bernina stitch regulator). I have to do some practice with it before I quilt a real quilt with it. Soon, I hope! 


Have a very happy Easter!!

    I am very proud of you for procuring such a gem. Well deserved I know.
    Your quilt is so adorable. I want to make one too.
    I love your patched backing. I like to make patched backings too. I love the fabrics. Is that Moda Bella in the blue back ground?

  14. I love your swoon quilt front and back. I also think your new machine is pretty awesome. When I am ready to get a new machine I think that something like yours would be perfect. I want to be able to do more quilting on my own projects.
