Sussex Vale Quilters' Guild

Here are the stitchers working their little hearts out to get our gorgeous guild quilt ready for display at our quilt show this fall.  Gonna be a beauty...again!! Our wonderful guest , Lois Mehan from Frederiton City Quilt Guild, gave us numerous tips and tricks to make our sewing experiences go much smoother and quicker. She is a font of information...our personal data bank when it comes to quick and easy ways to do things. That's Susan Snyder peeking above one of the panels she appliqued for her wall hanging "love Blooms here" found in the Quiltmaker magazine. Her sheep....... and the final panel.  Going to look great in the quilt show because I just know she will have it all finished for then...right, Susan??? Helen went to the Gathering of the Guilds and got herself a 'squedge' and this is the table topper she made using the 'different' ruler. She also made this baby quilt for a young mother in need.  Good person, that Helen!! M

 Judy showed us once again how innovative she is.  Here is a beach bag made with mesh...any sand that gets in it just falls through.  Smart girl... Susan is hiding behind a cuddle quilt she made  and, here is the last of her Skinnies . It is Autumn with the cutest owls. She stepped out of her comfort zone and changed her colour palette to jewel tones with this faux stained glass. Gorgeous!  And being the thoughtful quilter she is , she picked some loose threads off Ann Sniders Oh Canada quilt. ANN is the only one of the group that has hers finished so far. Jackie made this adorable Bug quilt along with a matching pillow of the extra square she had.  And here is what she did with the leftover fabric from a quilt she and her sister made.  Smart cookie that Jackie.  Bea made this warm and cozy rag quilt. We all recommended she give it the final step by washing it in a Laundromat and not in her own washer.  Joan is anxious for spring so she made this table run
