Rounding up the Strays from Kat & Cat Quilts

Happy weekend friends, I hope everyone is doing well! I had a very relaxing 2 weeks off and now I'm back to the hospital grind. School has started again and I have a new group of anxious future nurses to warp *ahem* I mean teach.

Pam recently took on my stash of leftover string blocks from the past 5 years of January drives. This quilt is made of the 12.5" blocks. There are several different designs, but they still go together really well.

These leftover string blocks from a pre-2019 string block drive were assembled and quilted by ...

Finally Wrapping Up 2019 Block Drive from Kat & Cat Quilts

Yes, that's right, these quilts are late-finishers from the Sept-Oct 2019 block drive. These four tops were sent in by Gail and "aged" for a while until Linda quilted them! Perhaps a record for longest block drive running?

Honestly it's nice to have quilts pop up so long after a drive, makes the design seem special again. And of course Linda's wonderful quilting puts them over the top.

I had to take a picture of some of the backings, too. Gail always sends in the best backings with her tops. Aren't these batik butterflies a beauty ...

Traditionally (for the past 3 years I think) Covered in Love has taken a break from block drives this time of year. This isn't so much to give you a break as to give me a ...

Bold and Bright {Split 9 Patch Round 1} from Kat & Cat Quilts

Back in Sept-Oct last year Covered in Love made these split nine patch blocks for our block drive. The quilts are nearly all done and I can't wait to show them to you!

The first quilt was assembled by volunteer Nancy K. and quilted by Jenn S. Those two ladies make a great team!

This one had a few backward blocks, which I didn't notice at first but it actually adds a lot of interest.

Cynthia, a professional long-armer, also donated her time and skills toassemble and finish seven quilts for CiL! Thanks to generous donations from supporters ...
