The end is in sight. Our quilt tops are done. Now is the time to create the quilt sandwich with backing, batting and the top, and determine what quilting will be applied to finish the project. Either of these projects, Gemstones or Graceful Gardens, would make a great addition to our upcoming quilt
show. When you have finished your quilt, please bring it to our guild to share with the rest of us.
I have chaired the Block of the Month for three years now and am stepping down from this role. If you have any interest in fulfilling this role, please let me know. I will be happy to answer any questions you might have. Our year ends in June, so your service will be from July 2026 to June 2027.
Happy quilting.
Sue Szot
For Gemtones, find the directions here: and scroll to the bottom for the finishing directions. There are no corrections to this pattern. This quilt top went together very easily and looks great! I will show my completed quilt tops for both projects at our next meeting. Please finish your quilts in the next few months and don’t hesitate to enter them in our quilt show. Sue Szot
