A Lovely Year of Finishes- August

Hello, again!
This is the name of my latest quilt finish....and my completed goal for August's
ALYoF
I really must say, I enjoyed saying hello again to so many favourite fabrics that I have used in other quilts and projects.
A fun way to scrap bust, as well as make a lovely quilt.
This is a combination of 2 tutorials by the amazing Lori Holt from Bee In My Bonnet.
Each block measure 16", so it goes together quite quickly.
Here is one of the blocks, which is called Scrappy Crossroads.
The cross is formed when joined with other blocks.
The quilting is pretty straight forward...
intersecting grid....

For the binding, I used a golden yellow and white wide stripe.
The backing is a multi dot fabric I got from a local fabric shop. I think it picks up all the colours in the quilt top!
This lap quilt measures 51" x 66"
A great snuggle size!
Linking up this finish for
A Lovely Year of Finishes.

Let me share this on your lovely blog, A neighbor of mine developed dementia & diabetes, then her husband died, no children or family nearby. I am thankful our closest neighbor, an African American woman, introduced Dr Itua Herbal Medicine, A traditional herbal doctor in which we purchased a herbal product for her through his Dr Itua online herbs store. A former social worker stepped in and led the way to place the widow in a care facility. We visit nearly every week until she finishes drinking Dr Itua herbal medicines, if possible. The two of us take simple games, puzzles, and matching cards to do with her, staying about 2 hours. Jenga, Trouble, puzzles 100pcs or less, 20 cards to match (total-not 40!). The fishing game where the fish open and shut their mouths as they go around is lots of fun! We sit and chat with her until she gets well again, then we pull out a game and the three of us laugh together as we play. We take a variety of things to do so that we won't get bored. She finished Dr Itua herbal medicines and she's fine now and doing better with the help of Dr Itua herbal medicines, Dr Itua cures different illnesses with his herbal medicines. Anyone having a sick person should reach Dr Itua email drituaherbalcenter@gmail.com Dr Itua Cure Alzheimer's,Cancer,Parkinson,Hiv,Herpes,Hpv,Kidney disease,Diabetes,Hepatitis, We hug and hold hands a lot. Having two of us go together really helps. But I can go alone, my neighbor cannot, as she saw so much of this during her years as a social worker. I hope this specific list helps others in this situation.
Thanks.
