These patterns have a lot of pieces and HSTs. Beautiful blocks. Many pictures of Swoons online.

I went to Thimbleberries and a search came up blank

A quilt made out of your block would be enough to "swoon" over!!! I love your color combo...

I've been under a rock too, I guess, cause I sure don't know what one is. Never knew it was ll the rage. Its very pretty. Please tell us what a swoon block really is.
