Quilt Xtravaganza

Quilt Xtravaganza was held at the Pyramid Recreation Centre in St. Marys, September 18 &19th. Refreshing! What an exciting new concept! Everything looked fresh and exciting. 'Wireless,' a pattern designed by guest Johanna Masko was chosen for the vendor's challenge. For me, this was a highlight...each quilt reflected the personality of the maker. The machine quilting was over the top in each one.
The photo shows the logo in the entrance hall..again the machine quilting was eye-catching. The second photo shows eager guest lining up prior to 10:00 am. Congrats Chantelle and Michelle!

St. Jacobs Board Parties

Members of the St. Jacobs Quilt Board held the 'kick-off' party for 2016 at Pix Martin's. Everyone enjoyed Pix's amazing yard, delicious food and outdoor heater. It was such a beautiful evening, we all wanted to stay and have another coffee.

Burnstown

Thursday, September 10, I shared my trunk show with members and friends of,' The Burnstown Women's Institute'. This delightful group of ladies was very receptive and seemed to love the colour, shape and modern approach to quilting. The quilt in the photo was a first attempt for many members to paper piece.This quilt hangs in the hall of the Burnstown United Church, a congregation with 15 members.
