Shelley Moore: I made this one for my daughters fortieth birthday, it was her choice of pattern and fabric . Janice Trudel quilted it beautifully, I love cross hatching , and it was backed with minky

Shelley Moore: Back of Quilt, Minky, Quilted by Janice Trudel

Shelley Moore: This one was shown but before it was quilted and I am so happy with it finished I wanted to show it as a finished project. I made this for a friends baby although it will fit a big boy bed. I made this pattern up as I went along and Janice quilted it for me. I asked for it to be lightly quilted and I LOVE what she did, backed with minky and polydown batting, it feels wonderful!

Donna Farrow: Block of the Month

Cathy Price: Sue Sherman Hawaiian applique workshop before quilting.

Cathy Price: This one with the 4 blocks was entered into Quilt Canada for the challenge THE TIES THAT BIND, titled Fans of Mine. I asked Carol, my mom, and 2 friends, Lana, and Randi, to each pick the colour layout of one block. They only got to see what the others chose, after they did.

Mary Cunningham: Teeny Tiny Mermaid – collage workshop through Taylor’s sewing. Laura Heine pattern.

Norma Willows: The fabric was bought in Dubai by my son, who then sent it to me and asked for a king size quilt. Took me awhile to decide on pattern. It was quilted by Happy Wife Quilting

Louise Clark: I was gifted a book Quilts of Iceland. This pattern represents the fractured look of glacial ice. I love the geometry of it and Carol Darou’s magical quilting brought a sense of calm to the chaos of the pattern. It is now on the way to England to a friend we travelled to Iceland with. I miss it already.”

Anna Cornel: In the past 18 months one of my granddaughters has developed an “ intensional & sustainability” blog she named Sweet Sustainability blogging about twice a month on ways of living as lightly as possible (reduce, reuse, recycle) To my amazement she now has over 2,000 followers ( in my day that meant something entirely different !). She graduates from Western University this month so this blown up logo is part of her graduation present.
