Hello, friends and happy May! Today I’m sharing the Quilt Block of the Month May 2024 block pattern PDF and video. I hope you are enjoying sewing along, and if you’re new here there is still plenty of time to join in! Keep reading for all of the details and information.
Quilt Block of the Month May 2024
May Block Details
This month’s block features a star center with accent corners and a four patch center made up of two squares and two half square triangles. I used a variety of colors and prints in each of my blocks to create extra interest. None of the piecing for this month’s blocks is hard, but you’ll need to make sure all of the half-square triangles are trimmed to the correct size.

Thank you, Sherri, for the free gift of another BOM for 2024. I’ve been enjoying the blocks each month and figured I really ought to say thank you now that we’re nearly halfway through! I always love your settings so I look forward to seeing what you plan to do this year 🙂

You are going to love your new Bernina. I sew on a Pfaff Icon but both feature brighter more adjustable lighting that makes piecing easier on the eyes. And the increased throat space in width and height means no more hunching over to “see” what you are sewing. These new machines are worth every penny (once we take the leap!).

I look forward to the first Monday of the month when I can get another pattern for a new block. It is like Christmas morning. Thank you for sharing your talent with us.

Thank you Sherri for another beautiful block! I look forward to each month’s release. So do my friends, who I have over once a month. First thing they want to do is go in the sewing room to see what I’ve been working on. They are loving the blocks and are smitten with the Strawberry Lemonade fabric line!

The only drawback I have, is getting the print to my iphone, away from google drive. Love your quilt along!
