Our March program introduced us to Jan Dudek. An accomplished quilter from Sarnia. Jan's specialty is minimal modern quilting. However, although her style is minimal, the quilting is definitely not. Every inch of some of her quilts were covered with wonderful quilting designs. Some of her quilt designs include street maps as background designs. AMAZING!!!
Mary Rowland works at Lee Valley and was excited to see them carry rotary cutters and blades at extremely reasonable priced (around $20 for the cutter and $8 for blades) She demonstrated a rotary cutter which cuts perfect circles of varied sizes. An easy way to fussy cut and for applique. Dale Box showed us her slow stitching hobby, which she as picked up with a group of friends while wondering in Arizona. She showed us a beautiful hand stitched nightgown made from 150 year old heirloom sheet, and hand stitched clothes made for the All American Doll.
Ruth McLeod, a member of the Thames Valley Quilters' Guild presented at out January meeting.
As you will see below her work is extraordinary. Ruth specializes in hand quilting and hand applique. Her work spans of 23 years of quilting. Refreshments are ready Gail and her crew set up all the goodies Everyone is making merry and bright Some members shared their President's Challenge Gail Kreek made a miniature of the quilt This is Louise Coghlan's version of her challenge Linda Cox's version of her page There were also many show & share quilts A beautiful silver Christmas tree by Jette Collins
could it be a workshop for next Christmas??? Marlene Dunlap delivered a further 15 quilts for the Outreach program. Below are a sample of the quilts made by our members for the program.
