More Hugs from Lori

Happy Friday, Quilters! This week's post is a round up of the last of the quilts that Lori sent in to us, starting with this flannel rail fence.

Things continue fairly well here. I took 30+ quilts up to the hospitals last week. 

My parents' garden is going wild and I've been experimenting with "sun drying" tomatoes in the oven. 

I got a new cat feeder for Sundae that meters out a precise amount of kibble 6 times a day. She has already learned the sound of it and is starting to predict the schedule. 

Hope you're staying cool and enjoying summer wherever you are!

Mina's Village

Happy Friday, quilters! Hope you're all well. This week I have several of Mina's signature village quilts to show. This first one she sent in already finished.

These next two were tops sent in by Mina and quilted by Sundance Quilting. I love them because they're bright with lots of little things to look at, and because it's a reminder of how much we all need our "village" to get through hard times.

Someone donated me this rainbow fabric that made the perfect backing for these cheery quilts. You zoom in on this one you might be able to see the panto of umbrellas and clouds.

My poor Sundae girl continues to struggle with her weight. She's like a furry watermelon. As they are coming up on 7 years old I really want to keep her in good health. Has anyone had any luck with a particular food for helping cats lose weight?

It's not fair that brother got a good metabolism and she has to count kibbles :(

Priscilla and Sundance

I received a box this week with no name or note containing 7 tops with backing fabrics and batting. If you sent it please comment or email coveredinlovetx@gmail.com to let me know!

Happy Friday, Quilters! Hope you're all doing well. This week I have 4 quilts to show you with tops made by Priscilla and quilted by Sundance. 

Butterfly and flower panto on this cozy blue and yellow quilt. Sundance Quilting have been great to work with and I recommend them if you need affordable and fast long arming services. 

Priscilla always makes great scrappy quilts. I'll probably be making a delivery of quilts up to the hospital next week.

Lately it has seemed like we are swamped with a lot of sicker patients than usual. It makes for long days as well as being pretty disheartening for everyone involved.  CiL is a nice way to feel like I'm at least doing something to help these people when there's nothing medical I can do. 

Sorry for the over exposed photos. Once I got started taking photos and was all sweaty I just wanted to push through and get them done. 

At long last I have posted a new block drive, so be sure to check that out at the bottom of the post. These are larger blocks than usual but I think they'll be really fun quilts. I can't wait to start seeing some of the blocks you put together!
