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 Pam too. Many of these blocks came from Karen M and Christy G. Thank you Pam! Clearing out these lingering old blocks is so satisfying.
Priscilla sent in this HUGE top a while back with really scrappy blocks based on the 2019 Fall split nine block drive. This top measures something like 100"+ x 90", so I took the opportunity of have it quilted by Denise and Kay. The ladies recently acquired a long arm and needed some quilts to learn on before taking customer quilts. They did a great job!
This is the memorial at my work for our hospital employees lost of Covid. Unfortunately it will probably continue to grow. Hug you loved ones close and get vaccinated! You might save your own life or someone else's.
Covered in Love is a 501(c)(3) charity that donates quilts to patients dying in the hospital, over 800 so far! The September/October drive is running now, check out the main post HERE if you want to get involved.
