One Week until the Quilt Show

In a week our quilts will be displayed for all to see!

We have been working for three years, come and see the results.

There will be a members boutique. We haven't only been making quilts. Many handmade items will be available for purchase including pincushions, bags, boxes, table runners and pillowcases. 
Remember all you sewers, we know you can make it but will you!

There will also be a tea room with cookies, squares, breads, muffins and other goodies to sample. Not only can we quilt some of the quilters can bake too!

So mark your calendars and come to the show.

Less than three Weeks Until the Quilt Show

We are hard at work getting ready for our Quilt Show. 

This Year there will be four vendors:

Both are quilt shops with fabric, notions, books and everything a quilter could want.

We are very happy to have Valerie Gobeil a jewellery maker and artist who use uses fabric in her creations. https://www.etsy.com/ca/shop/ValerieGobeil?ref=l2-shopheader-name




Here are our quilters hard at work these past three years. A lot of fabric has been cut in pieces and sewn back together and now all the creations are ready to be displayed.

Soon what is now a pile of quilts will be displayed for everyone enjoyment.

 This was our last show. What will you see this time?

See you at the Show!

We had a Paint Chip Challenge. We had to find paint colours that that began with the letters of our first and last names. We could then use one other colour. Everyone made a block of their choice using these colours. The squares were then made into a quilt. The quilt will be hanging in our show and then donated to Quilts of Valour which supports our injured Canadian Armed Forces members past and present with quilts of comfort

Deciding where to position the squares

The final result
See it hanging in the show.
