Swooning

I am officially on vacation... every day we are at the beach swimming, drinking coffee, and trying to slow down a little.

The strange thing is that I wake up every morning at 6:30, and because everyone else is still sleeping, I finally have some quiet time to work on my Swoon quilt.

This is my first attempt at making a Swoon quilt and oh boy... it is HUGE. I honestly have no idea how I’m going to quilt this thing on my tiny Pfaff machine. I’m seriously considering sending it to a professional long-arm quilter. (If anyone knows someone in Europe, please message me!)

I didn’t have time to participate in the previous quilt-a-long, so I was really excited to hear about this new one. If you’d like to join, you can link your projects in the Flickr group: Swoon 2013.

Now on this week's statistics
