Susan made this fun "Swoon 16" quilt, pattern by Camille Roskelley
and made with Bonnie and Camille "Daysail" fabrics.
I've quilted a few other swoon quilts similar to this, but this one is a 16" block...which is my most favorite size to quilt, so the rulers I used to quilt it are a different size.
I used a 4" circle ruler for the inner star peel design. I used a 5" circle ruler in all the house shapes, in the block. I used the 7" circle ruler for the design I made in the background of the four corners of each block. Lastly, I used a -12- curve ruler from Linda at The Quilted Pineapple.
I wish I had better light for pictures...
Fun for me to see the design as a whole.
The design created in the center, where all the four corners meet...is my favorite!
I love how it looks with the curved lines in the sashing.
Close up of the block and close up of the corners!!!! Love it!
I can see why so many people love the "swoon" quilt, especially this size!
Here is a video of me quilting the block continuous without having to stop and start new threads. When I do ruler work or any custom work, I like to try and figure out the easiest and fastest path to quilting a block. This video shows how I shuffle around the rulers as I quilt, which may be too much for you, the more you do it the easier it gets. I love the look that ruler work gives a quilt.

Happy sewing~!
