Swoon Spring 2014 Sew Along!

Just a little picture-ette of my latest work in progress as preparation for a Sew-Along I am planning to run at the Sewing Bee through the Spring and early Summer next year 2014.

We will make a lovely Pattern called 'Swoon' by Camille Roskelley, which uses easy fat quarters, can be made by hand or machine and makes up in lovely satisfying 24 inch blocks so you make a beautiful modern quilt in no time at all.

This is a sew-along, which means we will each have our own copy of the pattern  (I've ordered a big batch from the USA so shout if you'd like one) and will make up the blocks alongside each other, each working on our own quilt. I will do a little demo of each of the stages involved at the outset, and offer lots of help and encouragement as we go through!

This is a project that you can choose to work on at the Bee, or just come along and see how each others blocks come together, you don't need to be working on the sew-along to come to the Bee! You can use this as a project to 'bridge' a sewing gap between other projects or alongside an ongoing project as a change.

I love participating in a sew-along. Working alongside others is always a motivator and always so encouraging so I hope that there's a few of you who would like to join in with me!

We will kick off at the January Bees. I will demo how to make this block at both Bees so it doesn't matter which one you can get to, morning or evening.
