A beautiful spring day brought out many members for the monthly meeting, which was held April 7 in the craft room of the Don Ross Centre.
A lot of interest has been shown for the 鈥渜uilt challenge.鈥� The guild has been asked by one of its members, to produce 150 quilts in honour of Canada鈥檚 150th anniversary. At this meeting about 20 quilts were presented by various members. This total has been added to the 35 quilts already made. What a wonderful challenge. Way to go, ladies. These quilts will be donated as needed. At this rate the goal should certainly be reached by the end of December.
Classes have been given and continue to be added. In February, a day was聽 put aside for those interested in the 鈥淗unter Star鈥� design. In April, a class will be available for those interested in the two-color 鈥淏argello鈥� design quilt. In May, the 鈥淎ttic Window鈥� design will be available.
Members have been asked to bring two quilted articles for the trunk show in conjunction with our wind-up supper Thursday, May 25.
Elections were held for the upcoming year. The new executive is: president - Leslie McFarlane; secretary - Irene Sack; treasurer - Lyn Tarr.
The guild would like to thank the out-going executive for the exemplary job they did for us.
The accompanying pictures will show the desire to which fellow quilters go to enhance their work. There is so much talent in our group and they are so willing to share their knowledge.
Come and join us at 1 p.m. the first Friday of the month from September to May.
