Quilting Friends from Kat & Cat Quilts

Fellow Texans Nancy K. and Jenn occasionally team up to help CiL finish block drive quilts. Nancy put together these stars from the 2021 "Oh My Stars" drive and Jenn did the quilting on her long arm. I really like the layout Nancy chose. 

If you look closely you can see that the quilting panto has stars and swirls in it.

Nancy also put together these Tall 9 blocks and Jenn quilted it with an organic curvy panto.  Perfect colors for this time of year. With recent drop offs we are rapidly approaching 1500 quilts donated in the East Texas ...

Assorted Block Drive Quilts from Kat & Cat Quilts

Happy Friday quilters! This weekend I have quilts from Linda to show you. Linda has been such a busy worker bee for the past couple years helping to finish CiL quilts.

This geese quilt was Linda's contribution to the Sept/Oct 2022 drive, she made this one entirely herself. I really like this quilting design with the loops. 

This quilt is from the 2021 red, white, and blue stars drive. I recognize a lot of Mina's fabrics in there. 

Linda assembled and quilted the blocks. I know that quite a few of you helped Cynthia with her red ...

More Stars and Stripes from Kat & Cat Quilts

Another week, another finish post! I'm sorry I missed posting last week. I made a quick trip to San Francisco to visit a friend. I've always wanted to go to that city and had a great time!

San Francisco was awesome and I'm looking forward ...

More from Cynthia from Kat & Cat Quilts




This week we are featuring more lovely quilts by Cynthia of Quilting Is More Fun Than Housework. First up is this scrappy piece of her own design. She has donated all of these to comfort families through Covered in Love.


These churn dashes in a rainbow of colors are so fun!


She also donated these happy, spinning pinwheels. The blocks, set on point, alternate with a pretty floral that extends into the border to make the pinwheels float. Classic!


In addition to putting together her own blocks, Cynthia also helps us by laying out and finishing blocks from our bimonthly ...

July/August Covered in Love Block Drive from Kat & Cat Quilts

It's year six of the annual "Oh My Stars!" block drive.  I thought about alternative ideas and blocks but you know, if it ain't broke don't fix it! These quilts are beloved by our families and you all love making the blocks.

You can find the detailed instructions for the block drive in this post.

For the July/August drive we are back to sending blocks to the usual address (in Texas, no Kansas.) Email CoveredinLoveTx@gmail.com if you need the address. If you're new to Covered in Love block drives, welcome!  These are very ...
