May 2023 monthly recap....................

Two finishes again for May.  That makes 10 so far this year.  On the left is Kaffe fabric Rail Fence baby quilt, 38" x 52".  On the right Pink Twisted Ribbons, fabrics from many years of collected stash, 35" x 48".

Two new quilt tops, numbers 16 and 17 for the year so I'm still having too much fun making new quilt tops and dragging my feet quilting and finishing them.  On the left Pastel Diamonds is 49" x 72.5".  On the right Prints and Solids: Stars, 63" x 72".

For my own record, this top was finished yesterday, 63" x 72".  30 of the blocks were finished previously so I just needed to make 26 more.  Over half of the blocks have conversation prints and all of the blocks have solid star triangles.  I started making a series of solids and prints quilts, inspired by Lynn's quilts, in 2019.  She has a label for Solids on Prints Series on her label list.  I have totally completed 2 in my series, Zipper and Framed 9 patch.  I finished my postage stamp top (another label on Lynn's blog) and have 2 more sets of blocks started.

I tried one more time to get the camera to capture the pink of the Dianthus in the backyard garden.  This is the closest I have gotten but I think they are just a little darker than this.
