We chose the All Season's restaurant for our annual general meeting and banquet again this year. The Chinese/Canadian buffet is always a winner plus the volume of food is awesome. The room we use is great for a meeting as well .
Caroline started the show and tell this time with her L'il Twister tote . Good job there Caroline.
Kaye brought her crayon challenge . She decided to add some colours and combine them into a wall hanging depicting the four seasons. Well done, Kaye!
Ann brought in a Block of the month from a few years ago. or maybe it was a challenge from Ethel since the green for the trees was fabric from her. Either way, it's a hungry bear looking to steal honey from those bees.
Vera got her block of the month all quilted and bound. It is amazing to me how wonderful each and every one of these BOM's have turned out. Thanks to Joan Smith for her talent and her generosity to share these patterns with us.
Jean got some squares with photographs of her grand daughter's dancing accomplishments and put together a fabulous memory quilt. The fabric choices were her grand daughter's...significant that the star is also the Friendship star. Wonderful memories for her grand daughter.
Judith made this applique roll...now we expect to see some applique..right , Judith?
Carolyn made this beauty while in Florida as the rest of us froze here in Sussex.. Going to be stunning when quilted.
Muriel found a cute panel in her stash, backed it , quilted it, bound it and brought it in to Joyce to go in our cuddle quilt project. Kudos to Muriel!
I'm glad I stepped back to take a picture of this wall hanging made by Leigh. It really shows the dimensional aspect much better at a distance. Colour placement at its finest.!
Joan was absolutely delighted with this Professional Tote...a gift from one of the instructors at her place of work. she is a lucky woman....and no doubt,deserving of it.
Elsie tried her hand at designing and was very successful ....this beauty is her own design and well executed. A very pretty quilt, there Elsie!
Judy was feeling nostalgic...after 30 years in the guild who could blame her....lots of wonderful memories including this pin cushion done in candle wicking........
an ornament made in miniature of a quilt block......
this stained glass technique......
and this back basting technique done by machine from a class by Judy LeCleu (a master machine artist). It was fun to walk down memory lane with her and congratulations to Judy for 30 years of constancy with the guild.
Ethel won the title of "Bag Lady" with another tote she made to go to Portage. Such a thoughtful and kind lady she is.
Pat won the block from the very first President's challenge and put them all together. She had Agathe quilt it with variegated thread to show the quilting on the back as well as the front. Really nice fall quilt.
Marilyn did this today..it is a great project bag....using quilted material with mesh in the front zippered pocket so you can see through and know what project you put in it.....I think I might need a few of those.
We're off for the next two months to take advantage of the warm weather...if it ever comes....for those of you on the bus trip...enjoy!
See you in September...the good Lord willin' and the creek don't rise!
Lovely show and tell. There's lots of talent here! Found this blog purely by accident.
