Your work with the orphan blocks is a blessing (I once put together a group project of 16 patch blocks and swore I'd never do it again). And even more amazing is that you do all this fantastic work while living on a boat! Like everyone else, I'm looking forward to what you accomplish with the next batch of orphan blocks.<br />PatMissPathttps://www.blogger.com/profile/06807348837446241284noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6996371959062263667.post-71136485351529563032019-08-08T21:17:05.130-04:002019-08-08T21:17:05.130-04:00I do like how you've set the blocks from Cover...I do like how you've set the blocks from Covered in Love's donation drive, also how you've incorporated a few in the backing.

I can’t wait to see what other quilts you come up with.<br /><br />I’ve finally found (earlier this year) a fun local Quilts for Kids charity group where the women are so friendly. Since we have a backlog of over 200 quilts to be quilted, that seemed the best place to focus. The longarmers quilt the larger youth quilts, and several of us DSM quilters tackle 4-8 quilts each per month (quilting and then self-binding with the backing fabric). <br /><br />You always provide such great inspiration, Louise!!Cathyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/05765115495938525371noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6996371959062263667.post-37261239239677460822019-08-07T21:10:48.202-04:002019-08-07T21:10:48.202-04:00:) FYI I'm featuring all your recent CIL finis...:) FYI I'm featuring all your recent CIL finishes on the blog this Friday so you might get some traffic from it.
