Hand2Help 2019 -The Quilts Keep Rolling On!

Hi, all!

Oh, the emails I have been receiving, with pictures of beautiful quilts made even more beautiful because they were made to be given away!  Today I'm going to share all the pictures that have come in since Sunday, so let's get started!

*&*&*&*&*&*&*

And this final quilt was sent to Mercyful Quilts by Vasudha!


*&*&*&*&*&*&*

How's that for a goldmine of inspiration?  And since I started writing this post, more pictures have come into my inbox - but in the interest of getting this posted in time for BlogLovin' to pick it up for their daily email, I'm going to post now and add those later during the day - so be sure to come back again later and see if more have been added!  You are going to be blown away by this year's numbers - I sure am!

And on another note, I want everyone to know that I'm visiting every. single. linkup.  Unfortunately, on many (through no fault of you) I'm seeing this when I go to leave a comment...


See where it says "Comment as Google Account"?  Well, it should say my name there, or I should be able to choose my Google Account - but I can't change that, and any comment I leave goes off into NeverNever Land!  I have no idea what is causing this, and every attempt I've made to bypass it has failed.  So trust me that I've been by to see your post, your quilts are wonderful, and I appreciate you immensely!!

Remember, Friday 5/25 at noon the linky party for Hands2Help will close - so get those quilts linked up!!!

Hugs!

Sarah

  1. Wow, fantastic quilt show!! I am so grateful for all the quilts being sent to the Carolina Hurricane Quilt Project!! I know it is harder to do the larger quilts, and thank every quilter willing to take on that challenge to help a devastated area of our country. Thank you, Sarah, for including this project in Hands2Help this year.

  3. I have the same issue with certain blogs. Try using a different browser. I can't comment on your blog in Safari even though it allows me to choose my Comment as: Name/Url. I do that, but then the comment never shows up on your blog. I use Firefox for those Google blogs that don't work.

  4. Holy cow quilts! Amazing!!!
    I had that same trouble with comments on my phone. I tried clearing cookies and whatnot and it might work for one comment. I have an android/Samsung phone and was using their default Samsung browser. So I went to Chrome - the Google browser - jumped through all the hoops, learned where all the buttons were, logged in and voila! I can leave comments using that browser on my phone again. Not exactly the happiest situation, but it works. If you're on a real computer, try Chrome there as well. Seems Google is not playing nice with other browsers (and it is NOT my favorite browser)...but maybe their next update will fix that?

  5. This is nothing short of amazing Sarah!! The quilts are incredible and the quantity is inspiring. Such a generous gift of time, creativity and $$. It is expensive to make a quilt and also to mail it somewhere. I am so grateful for this group of kind people!

  6. Beautiful quilts! I had that same problem commenting on some blogs for awhile. I think I fixed it with go to the cookies setting. Maddening. I think I found a way to email the blogger in the meantime. Not a glitch you need this week!

  12. Sarah, I think you've created a monster. A wonderful, benevolent, generous monster. But you never thought your sharing project would ever grow so big. Thank you for all your hard work.
