Hi Everyone:

Well, as you know yesterday was the AGM of the CQQ. It was a great day to be indoors talking anything quilt or quilt related. It was cold, rainy and windy, in general - miserable. Saw an incredible rainbow on the way home - you could see it almost end to end!! Beautiful!! (no pics unfortunately, couldn't stop the car on the bridge).

But I do have pics of the group of us that went hard at work making the block for the CQQ quilt. This quilt will be raffled off at the AGM in 2013. Great reason to attend the meeting!! You can't see her, but in there anyway is Marilyn (now known as Serafina). It was great to see her again and hear about all her new ventures and adventures. Always fun to see Marilyn, oops, Serafina!!
















The next shot is of our group showing off all
our community service projects. Good job ladies.
So many of the guilds had community projects
to show and they are fabulous, from quilts of
valour for our soldiers, bags with blankets for
cancer patients, pillows for breast cancer patients,
the list goes on and on. What a caring bunch quilters are!!



And this is the picture of some of the group from Bethany's class and their results. I think you'll agree - beautiful work!!



Many thanks to the Lachute guild who did a wonderful job. We had plenty of hot coffee and tea to greet us in the morning and huge amounts of sweets. Also four vendors with plenty for everyone. Hard not to spend some money!!

Hopefully, next year we have even a larger group. It's a fun day and it's great to see other quilters we've met over the years and don't get to see that often.
