New quilt block added to Lake County Quilt Trail; one block relocated
LAKE COUNTY, Calif. – The Lake County Quilt Trail said one new quilt block has been added and another has been relocated.
The new block is “Mantle Memories,” a 4-foot by 4-foot block that has been installed on the Totorica Plumbing Inc. building at 4230 Main St. in Kelseyville.
This block was purchased at auction for Operation Tango Mike by Vicki Totorica.
This location for “Mantle Memories” was the home of Vicki Totorica’s grandparents, Don and Hulda Mantle.
Hulda Mantle had a beautiful backyard flower garden that featured several varieties of roses and pink lilies known as Pink Ladies.
“Courthouse Steps,” an 8-foot by 8-foot block which originally was placed on the historic Lunas Building at the corner of Third and Main streets in Lakeport, has been relocated just down Main Street to the Skylark Shores Resort, 1120 N. Main St.
Skylark Shores Resort is open to all recreational/vacationing guests. They are following CDC guidelines for COVID 19 to ensure the safety and peace of mind for their guests. There are no restrictions for bookings. For more information visit https://www.skylarkshoresresort.com.
