More Tops Completed!

Happy weekend, quilters! I hope you're all well.  I have some team quilts to show this week. Amy sent in two tops and long-armer Wendy completed them for us. 

Thanks to both of these ladies. These are really large quilts and will be a great gift to the families that Covered in Love benefits. I really like the colors in both of Amy's tops. 

Next, two quilt tops sent in by Kathy B. and quilted by Ray in Florida. Ray does an excellent job with his quilting, I'd highly recommend him if you're looking for a long-armer.

Kathy's second top is made from a pattern we did as a block drive back in March 2020.

Speaking of block drives, Cynthia just launched her latest block drive for Compassion Quilts. They're making "happy blocks" for kids quilts this time around and I know CiL doesn't make kiddy quilts, so this could be a fun change. Be sure to check it out.

Lastly, inspired by some jackets I've seen on Instagram I added a quilted panel to the back of this thrift store jacket. It's way too hot to wear right now, but I think it looks pretty cool.

  1. Gorgeous quilts! I especially love the quilting motif on the cream and blue one. Your jacket turned out so cute! I hope you get some "jacket weather" soon.

  2. The quilts are gorgeous! Families will be thrilled to receive them! Your jacket is really nice. I rarely wear jackets as we just don't get cold cold weather here in NC, but I am really tempted to try one like this. Thanks for sharing!

  4. Beautiful quilts! I really like the green quilt with the black/white four-patches. Adding a quilt block to clothing is a great idea to create a one-of-a-kind garment.
