The CIL Finishes Keep Coming

 I have been continuing to work on completing the Covered In Love quilts that so many of you donated blocks for.




This is the second set of blocks in this design.  For more information on this block drive, you can go here.




I really enjoy seeing all the fun fabrics in everyone's blocks.




I was initially going to alternate the direction of the blocks but I just really like this all vertical layout.  It works so well with the horizontal quilting.




Kat sent a starry sky fabric which I used for the backing.  I was a bit surprised to find out it glows in the dark - which I discovered when I was wandering my house in the dark.  

I have a few more of the other quilts all quilted up - but I am behind sewing on the bindings.
So I am hoping to share two of the patriotic quilts next week.  Stay tuned!

Have a great weekend Everyone!

I love how fabulous these look. What a great finish!! They go together as if they were all made by the same quilter. I actually see about 6 of my own blocks in the mix. Thank you so much for assembling and quilting this lovely quilt for CIL. I hope we make these blocks again next year because they were fun to make and such a great use of tiny scraps.

I can just imagine being startled to discover that backing glows in the dark! Thanks for helping more quilts reach completion.

Looks awesome! I didn't know that the backing glowed, I bet that was a surprise to discover!

I really like the layout with the blocks parallel like this. It looks like the happiest forest! Lovely finish :)

Very pretty. Makes me think of birch trees (although obviously a different color!).
