February 2018 Meeting and Show and Tell

Hi All,


 Today's meeting was well attended and smoothly run.  Minutes were read by our secretary Dianne  and various other business topics were covered. Our March(Charity) and April (Stack-n-Whack) workdays were discussed by Cecile, and an update from Barb E regarding products to be made at our next Charity Work Day.

SHOW AND TELL! (not in order of showing.😀)

There was a little snafu with Google, therefore the order got mixed up....but all the photos are here!


Here is Betty with her colourful Block of the Month  "Neighbourhood Quilt"

After Show and Tell was over-Joan gave me my quilted scrappy lap quilt ...

and...here is the back.


   Cecile brought the following amazing quilt for Show and Tell, and it is a beauty.  When Vivian Savage retired from the Veteran's Unit this quilt was made for her.  What a treasure!  I hope that you can enlarge the photo and see some of the personal  messages and depictions that are depicted in each  quilt square.
  In the second picture, the central square are the personalities that were in the Unit at the time.  Absolutely amazing 3D characters!



  Because March is Saint Patrick's Day, today's workshop was the teaching of a simple Shamrock!  Cecile had many Irish and want a be Irish in her class! ☘ Lets hope that there are some in March to show.




 That is all for this month folks,
Kathy F
