Kathys & Co.

top by Kathy B, quilted by Dee

Happy Friday, quilters! This Friday I bring you a selection of tops made by two different Kathys and quilted by 4 volunteer quilters.

I was busy this weekend packing and shipping tops to quilters.  It inspired me to get busy myself and I have quilted 9 tops so far and plan to do 2 more tonight. 

Jenny S. did a lovely job quilting Kathy's big 16 patch with a feathery motif. For the top she used a multi color thread that perfectly complements the color scheme. I tried to get a good pic but it's much clearer in real life.

I love the backing choice and the multicolored binding. Great collab between these ladies.

Last top from Kathy B., another 16 patch with a cute flamingo backing. 

We've been having a lot of strong thunderstorms here, lots of trees down and power out.  My little area has been quite fortunate, with the worst of it going just south of use repeatedly.  In between storms it's hot and muggy, I had to keep wiping the condensation off my camera lens when I took these pictures. I hope it's safe and dry where you all live.

Kathy S. made this top with a block similar to the potato chip blocks we have in the block drive right now. 

Pam did a wonderful job with both of these scrappy quilts, giving them a cozy stipple.  Since 2020 Pam has quilted (and often also assembled) over 50 quilts for CiL!

Massive thank you to Pam, Jenny, Dee, Wendy, Kathy S. and Kathy B. I truly couldn't do this without all your help.

Pretty pretty Sundae checking out the high spot.

Covered in Love is a 501(c)(3) charity that donates quilts to patients dying in the hospital, over 1500 so far! The April-June block drive is live now.  Check out the main post HERE if you want to get involved.
