First quilt top for May 2026




The stripe bottom border was removed and a replacement fabric sewn in.  Then the borders were added and it is finished.  I don't think it needs anything else.  It will be wall art rather than a cuddle quilt.  It is 48" wide and 53" tall.  The light fabrics aren't as bright of a contrast as they look in the photo.


I have company staying with me for a few days and we went plant shopping for my pots.  I didn't remember to get a photo of all of the plants so we brought this one in for a photo shoot.  There was a brisk breeze yesterday and lots of sunshine.

The top is fabulous! What a great way to use up those leftover blocks. The geranium is so pretty! Enjoy your company!

Your first May finish looks amazing, especially getting to watch your selections/changes along the way. I think that last border is perfect. How lovely to shop the garden store with your company….the pink geranium is lovely.

Medallion has always been a treat to see… you have created a sensational ‘show stopper’. Your geranium is a beauty also , it looks so healthy.

Your placement of that swirly, spunky last border finishes off your work of art perfectly. Thanks for sharing!
