New Block

Hello Everyone, we are up to 92 quilt tops in 90 days!

You can see about 75 of the tops here:

Some of the tops were taken home with people to be quilted prior to the photos being taken. We will get photos when they are returned from the quilters.

Unfortunately we have apparently exceeded the graphics limit on the blog or have some other technical issue and I cannot post the new block here so email me at carol@qov-socal.org and I will be sure to email the block to you.

Thank all of you for your support. We could never accomplish this without you.

Happy block making!
Carol

61 tops in 60 Days! New Block

Hi everyone,

There is so much to share. Here are a few quick facts. In the 60 days from Feb. 20 to Apr. 20 we made 61 quilt tops in 60 days. I have shipped 44 to longarmers and the rest are either at longarmers or will be soon! Phenomenal job, very nice work to everyone who participated.

Our new block was selected by Kaye Wood. Kaye has a grandson in Kuwait on his way to Iraq. She was thrilled to hear about our project and anxious to participate. The May block is located on the side bar.

Keep those blocks coming! There are many soldiers who need to be wrapped in a little love.

More soon.
