by the time I remembered to take my camera out to take some pictures of our programme day, Sandra Carter had won the "guess the block name" contest. Out of the twelve patterns to name she got nine of them right...smart cookie got a fat quarter for it, too.
The next game was funny and fun....dress the bride in toilet paper. We had three teams and here is team number three dressing Judy Hughes.
Team number two getting Jean Thompson all dolled up...I was with team number one and Renate was our model.
Here are the lovely brides...notice Judy's fascinator....
She stepped on her train and lost it...poor bride.
Renate looks like runaway mummy....she was tucked in pretty tight there and will probably find pieces of the paper later...Good fun and a few laughs..best therapy in the world.
Helen made this sweet place mat for her grand daughter...I have a feeling it will be chocolates in the pockets instead of cutlery.
and here we are ...we're such gamblers...playing Strip Poker...Leigh was the winner here after a hard fought battle with strips of fabric going back and forth...we'll be playing this at the Villa Madonna for sure. I need a few more chances to win the srips somehow.
Show and tell started with a jean quilt that Muriel and her sister in law made. They donated it to our comfort quilt programme.
Vera made this orange and teal quilt from a kit she bought while in Ottawa last year. Turned out pretty darn nice there, Vera.
Jean put together a scrappy cuddle quilt..she's always bringing in sweet quilts for the project.
Susan made her cuddle quilt and brought it in ,too.
This beautiful piece of fabric came from Thailand via Ann's grand daughter...she said this stunning fabric cost only four dollars....wow!
She also brought in her cuddle quilt...nice bright colours.
Evelen showed us this sweet child's quilt.
Lilliane got her Block of the Month chickens or are they roosters? done in a table runner.
Joan did a striped quilt as you go cuddle quilt.
Leigh made this bright quilt for our Chemo quilt project....she also brought in an anti -ouch pouch and matching drain bag....well done!
and this is cuddle quilt she is still working on.
Sandra quilted this cuddle quilt.
and Marilyn got into her knitting...this gorgeous cowl has wooden buttons...for some reason the picture I took of the quilt she brought in did not come out...you can see it folded over the back of the chair...it is a lap quilt she made for a friend undergoing chemo.
Quilters are such generous and kind hearted people...I had one lady tell me at one time she felt she wasn't nice enough to be a quilter and now we know what she meant.
Here are the lovely brides...notice Judy's fascinator....
