 Today was a very special day and it seemed only appropriate that we celebrate with a very special lady.  100 years young, Vivian Patriquen has been a member in good standing for many  years and not only a delight to know she is an amazing quilter. Here she is , sitting in a place of honor in front of two or her quilts.  There were many more displayed with each and every piece exquisitely made.  She is such an inspiration for us all.  These were the centerpieces that Jacqui J, our president made and so fitting. Next to Vivian is Ellen Henderson, who is a youngster of 98.....both of them looking so very fine.  Sandra started out show and tell with her Quilter's Connection  150th Canadian anniversary table runner. This lovely quilt is the second one Elsie has made...she took a class at the Quiltery with Beth Rasmussen.  Judy has been hooking up a storm..I believe it is for a function that is upcoming with the Sussex Hookers group she belongs to.

Janice got her paper pieced 150th Logo done...in her colours.  She tells us she had to 'fudge' it to make it fit properly.  Marion said she had to do the same ....she told us she blessed it many times before she made it work. I guess you could say mine has been blessed as well but it is sitting in pieces on one of my tables and I think it just might stay there. Linda has been busy...can't remember the name of this pattern but it sure works well in those colours.  This rail fence is a chemo quilt with fleece on the back. It is soooo very cosy and comfy!  This beauty is Roaring Waves , again in Linda's colours. The pattern really pops.  Wendy is back and here is a quilt she made..same pattern which shall remain nameless. She's not sure if she likes it...out of her colour comfort zone....I think it is gorgeous. She beat me as the "bag lady" with this zip it purse.  She said it took about an hour and a half to make. Lots of pockets and lots
