A lot of pictures this time....we had no other meeting in February with storms hitting on our scheduled meeting days.  However, the Chinese Auction is always a favorite and here you can see all the goodies lined up for perusal...Margaret McNair was the big winner...had so much stuff she needed a truck to take it all home....

 Vera started show and tell with this beautiful ....I call it a stained glass but I am sure there is another name for it.

then she showed this beauty that had been quilted by Agathe...stunning.

Vera did her block of the month as a table topper...her grandchildren love it.

This is  kit she bought at a quilt show in Ottawa...a great example of putting together fabrics based on the colour wheel.

 This is Ann's Chemo quilt pattern...one of the surprise envelope patterns...turned out great...nothing nicer than a scrap quilt, I say!

 Marg made this comfort quilt.

 and this chemo quilt

 and then she did this wonderful applique and pieced quilt...busy lady...

 Judy is into knitting socks these days.. always up for new techniques.

 Muriel quilted this whole cloth baby quilt and passed it along to Joyce for a cuddle quilt..

along with this baby quilt from a panel.

She also made this quilt for a friend of hers that had passed along his late wife's fabric...some of which she used in the quilt.

She enjoyed the pattern so much she made one for herself.

Leigh brought in this comfort quilt from Evelyn.

 and this beauty Bargello that she made for herself.....fire colours...warm!

Susan made this sweet little wall hanging

 and this gorgeous stained glass quilt.

And a disappearing nine patch.

 Jackie made this sampler quilt that came from the Fabric Cupboard $15.00 quilt...sure looks like more than $!5.00 to me...

and she made this dis appearing four patch as well..

REnata cleaned up UFO's by making pillows.

with some Celtic work  front......

and back.

Cynthia is preparing for the quilt show by making tote bags...

 and loads of microwave hot mitts to sell....

Melda made this sweet "I spy" quilt ...wonder who it is for..?

Ellen keeps busy making these bags..with a side pocket for a phone.

 Ethel got down to it and did some UFO's from her pen pal...she still hasn't given up that address...wonder why????

 Here's another PHD that finally got done...

along with another....miniature of broken dishes

 and pinwheel.

 Vivian made some anti-ouch pouches...always a need.

 Gillian made this adorable owl hat...

 along with some crocheted hats...going to be a lot of happy little girls.

 Cheryl is hiding behind this table runner she made from our block of the month patterns ...well done there, lady!

Then she had some fun with this last block of the month chicken pattern..cluck! cluck! looks great.

Evening Ladies February 22, 2016

 It was a small group that met this evening and Wendy blew us all away with how much she has accomplished.  Here is a quilt for Tyler who loves trucks and big machines....he's going to be a happy little boy.

 This baby quilt is for another little boy....it has camo fabric on in but Wendy 'babied' it up a little with owls and trees...

 A diaper bag holder.....with a cut little owl and the "camo" fabric..

 she even made this portable changing pad that folds up and is easy to take along in some camo.....

This is Beth's 15dollar quilt....from the Fabric Cupboard...makes a sweet quilt called "Blessings"

This is Chris's version of the same quilt....same quilt yet so different...

February 15, 2016, Evening Guild

 We braved the frigid temperatures...we're such hardy souls...and here's our show and tell. Carolyn did her block of the month and we decided only one point is a little iffy...pretty darn good if you ask me...I challenge you to find it!

 Janice is modelling this gorgeous shrug that Marilyn made for her daughter.. not only is the colour fabulous , the wool is silky soft.

This log cabin in soft pastel shades was made by Marilyn...now she's looking to match some pillow cases to go with it.

 The picture does not do justice to the wonderful blues and yellows ...so very French Provincial...,,made by Marilyn, one busy lady.

A chemo quilt...again by Marilyn...colourful and bright..sure to lift someone's spirits.

This is Carolyn's Chemo quilt.  very masculine and comfy..it has fleece on the back.

This started out as a Chemo quilt but Janice made it a little bigger than necessary and decided she should keep this one and make another.  Can you blame her...it is gorgeous...

 Linda finished her table topper with colours that she doesn't often use.  It's beautiful..such a wonderful sense of colour, that girl.

 Here's is her ironing board and ruler carrier...as usual with Linda, just a little more pizzazz...

 Joanne made some scissor holders...

 and an iron board and ruler carrier.

then she made this skating outfit ...we tried to get Linda to model since she was the only one tiny enough to fit...she said no thank you!

Last but not least, Ruth made herself a great table topper...
