Sometimes You Just Need To

I found a new project to play with... not that I needed a new 

project...

I just thought it would be fun!

And although I contemplated a variety 

of color combinations, I decided to 

use me fun little stash that had been set aside for

"Lucy"...  but I hadn't made yet,

So what I have so far is a Scrappy Swoon.

I found a Scrappy Swoon Along

This quilt along is long over but I had just purchased the 

Patchwork Swoon pattern from Thimble Blossoms but this one looked like a 

fun version!

One difference is the Scrappy Swoon Along uses 3 1/2" squares

and the Patchwork Swoon if great for a layer cake or jelly roll.

I think I forgot to share this new addition to my family!

This had been quietly sitting 

 in a family members garage in Rhode Island for the past 7 years.

Her husband's mother had passed away and they held on to the her

little featherweight. But were about to put it up for auction...

which is when I heard about it.

So, even though I have a Centennial edition already

... which turned out to be close in serial numbers...

I felt I needed to rescue her!

Sometimes you just need to do that!
