My swoon quilt top is finished according to the pattern but, I am thinking I will add a border to the two sides so that it's a little bit wider (for when the husband tries to steal the covers and my tush hangs out). I don't have enough fabric for the borders unless I piece them...I might have to go shopping. I'll probably see what the shop has and then make my decision.

House wallhanging finished
I have finally finished my house wallhanging. This Family Estate Wallhanging pattern is from the book Friendship Strips & Scraps by Edyta Sitar for Laundry Basket Quilts.
My sister and I have been going to an Edyta Sitar fan club at our local quilt shop. It has been a lot of fun and I'm looking forward to showing you our upcoming projects.

Swoon block #9
My last swoon block awhhhh. I'm wishing I would have used more grey. This is turning out better than I thought. The blocks have all gone together very nicely but it takes me about two days of sewing to finish one block. My back just can't handle sitting for too long anymore (guess I'm getting older LOL today is my birthday).

Swoon block #8
Well, I'm finally getting around to posting my swoon progress. The solid green is not true to real life color but it gives you an idea. This quilt is really growing on me. I'm not sure how I will quilt it yet. Hoping a bright idea will hit me soon.
Check back tomorrow for my last swoon block.

Swoon block #7
Well, I don't think this one will be my favorite but it's done and I think it will be fine once it is mixed in with the others. Only 2 more to go!

Swoon block #5
I like the polka dot fabric in this one. It's a little more modern looking.
Only 4 more to go.
I haven't been around my blog or sewing machine much lately. My family has been sharing some nasty sickness. I'm still getting over it but am feeling like a little bit of sewing again.
