Where is the pattern. I didn't find a post for it. Never mind. Just found it. LOL. I like this and so many possibilities. I can't wait to see what everyone does with this one. I like the three that are done so far.

Here is my May BOM block....I reduced the measurements of the pattern to make it 8 X 8 then using postage stamp squares I tipped the corners of the petals and then set the 8" square on point.

Jenniky......what a pretty May block. Love your colours and your petal design.

joejoe31......What a pretty color combination for your block. I think you can make it just the way it is, it looks great to me!! :D It is so much fun seeing how everyone ends up making their block for the month. Each one is so individual & I Love that. No need to be a member, as everyone is welcome at any time. Thank you for sharing.

Linda....... my your "Oh Suzanna" block is just darling!! :D I love the circle right in the center of your block. I can't tell, but is it a doily or applique on there? It really adds to your block. Your fabric's & color's are really great too. Thank you for sharing with all of us today.
:D :D :D :D

BettyB..........what a wonderful block you have made, too. I love the color's you chose, they remind me of an old fashioned piece of candy & I can't think of the name of it!! :D They say the mind is the first thing to go!! :D Thank you so much for sharing with all of us today & for not dragging your feet for to long!!

Thank you! The flower in the center is applique (blanket stitch). I used white thread on white fabric - halfway through I wished I had used a different color thread, but now that it is done, I think I like it!

Crlyn 05-02-2012 06:52 PM

Lovely May block, and the variations are wonderful!

Dae Kuczma 05-03-2012 07:05 AM

These are LOVELY!!!!

starshine 05-03-2012 11:17 AM

Lovely blocks. Sulabug does BettyB's block remind you of that 3 color coconut candy, I think Brach's made? Was it called neopolitan coconut?

JeanieG...........I LOVE the fabric that you have selected to make your May 2012 BOM block with. It is so pretty & looks very striking all together. Nice work & I can also see that it will be so nice in your quilt, at the end of the year. Thank you so much for sharing with all of us today!!
:D :D :D :D

urgodschild2 05-05-2012 10:02 PM

Oh I love the red very pretty Jeanie

Jenniky 05-06-2012 08:29 AM

Thanks everyone for the wonderful comments on my block. My inspiration as always comes from all that I have learned on this quiltingboard site and from the books and tutorials and then there is just plain nature. Flowers are so fun to make. So far we are seeing some great blocks made from different fabrics which all bring magic to the Oh Susannah square. I sure as the month goes on we are going to see more spectacular presentations of this block in fabrics and interpretations. :thumbup: :thumbup:

May BO
 
Here is my BOM for May.

I cannot figure out how to upload a picture. I have tried everything in the help section. So I will just enjoy looking at yours.
