It will be Swell!

SwellHere are the first 2 blocks of the Swell Moda U kit I'm making as a shop sample. I was kind of "meh" about the Urban Chiks' Swell fabrics, but once I started fondling cutting these beauties, I fell in love. What a fresh breath of spring!



The block on the left is all sewn together and the block on the right needs to be seamed. The construction is pretty easy, the planning is a little tricky, but fitting it all together is like a puzzle and I like puzzles.



Oh boy, a three day weekend - more time to sew! Enjoy the rest of YOUR weekend, I'll be working on Swell!

  6. I have been looking at the Swell fabric - I do love the fact it's bright and sunny. It must make you happy to work on it. You're doing such a great job, as usual! I am still with the grandkids, but am hoping to make it home tomorrow. There's snow in Chicago, and I get to try and make it out of there! Wish me luck!
