A Lovely year of finishes, May finish.

I really need to make smaller goals for myself :-), especially now that my son is out of school for the summer.   The past few months I have found myself running myself ragged to the point where I'm not enjoying life.  Most days it feels like a chore just to do anything.  You can all look at my past blog posts and see that they are getting further and further apart.  My 'me goal' for June will be to blog at least once a week.  

For May I set my goal to finish a the quilt top of all the squares I trimmed up last month.  I am pleased to say that I did finish the quilt top just yesterday.   I love it!   I'm really glad I was able to get pictures yesterday because it is raining buckets today.  

While working on this, I was talking to Melissa over at Sew Bittersweet Designs on what to use for the setting triangles around the outside.  When I put white with it, it just made my eyes cross and then she suggested using a blue of some sort.  I had a small piece of  blue in my stash so I sent her a picture and so with that picture in my head no matter what I tried, I couldn't make myself like the white.  

So there it is.  Bold and Beautiful.  There is a story that goes with this quilt and I will tell it one day, but you are going to have to wait in limbo for a little while longer.
