President’s Message

Time sure flies by! Yesterday was our One Block Wonder workshop.  Although I did not make it, I understand a good time was had by all.  Thanks to Shirley for her leadership and all of those who assisted with set- up, snacks and clean up.  Please be sure to bring a sample of your blocks…or your completed top…to our December meeting for everyone to see how different each quilt will be.  Toss in some of the original fabric as well.

Christmas is almost upon us…our December meeting is about socializing…please bring an item for our potluck supper and some loonies and toonies for Quilt Bingo – proceeds to the
local food bank.  Also, remember your quilted stockings, Santa sacks and Comfort Quilts for My Sisters Place.  At the moment we have 27 quilts, 33 sacks and 36 stockings packed and ready to go.

Last month we gave  instructions for the first block of the fabric Colour Theory series.  Finish up your colour  wheel and bring it along.  Remember to bring your Yo-Yo ornaments from Christmas in July and any Christmas Show’n’Tell you have.  Donna is still collecting measurements for the CQA challenge too!  We will present the last of the 3-D Block series – looking forward to the reveal in March, when we hope Christie will be able to join us and see what she has inspired.

We had a great turn out last month for the Quilts of Israel presentation, where we heard lots of stories and saw an amazing sample of quilts from the upcoming spring show.  Another destination to put on your calendar.

See you in December…
