This is our new mission statement for the guild and I think it expresses our sentiments well. There was a lot of energy at this first meeting of the year as we discussed future group projects such as quilting bees, workshops and our upcoming retreat at the Stables (next week already!)
We will be interacting more with some of the other Montreal Guilds who meet nearby: Loose Threads, Westmount Quilt Guild, and Cuilte Montreal - not only by visiting them in person but also through a common blog that has been set up (see the link in the sidebar).
And no meeting would be complete without Show-and-Tell: a lot was accomplished over the summer!!
First up....Anna and her beautiful counted cross-stitch tablecloth.
Barbara made a baby quilt over the summer:
Donna made a pincushion and a nifty stuffed pear (it's not your eyes - the pear is really out of focus, sorry about that):
Linda went crazy for curves on this scrappy quilt:
Mary finished the pink and purple quilt that we saw in progress at last year's retreat:
And Cath brought in two quilts that are ready to give to a couple of lucky kids:

Fabulous pictures - even my quilt looks better than I thought! I think this blog will be a great way for us to stay in touch and up-to-date!
