Convert complex txt to csv with python

I want to convert text to csv. Input file contains 10000K lines. Sample of input file is as below:-

Item=a
Price=10
colour=pink


Item=b
Price=20
colour=blue Pattern=checks

My output should look like this

Item Price Colour Pattern

a    10    pink
b    20    blue   checks

I am getting output if there is only single '=' in 1 line, if there are more than 1 like 2/3 '=' then I am not sure how to apply for loop. Can someone check my for loop part? Am I going wrong somewhere?

    path = "folderpath"

    for filename in glob.glob((os.path.join(path, '*.txt'))):
        name_only = os.path.basename(filename).replace(".txt", "")
        dat_to_csv(filename, name_only)

Output which I am getting is as below: enter image description here
