Mystery Quilt Show

Our 3rd annual Mystery Quilt show was held on June 15th with over 20 quilts on display.  These quilts all featured the same pattern, but with individual fabric choices, it was hard to believe the difference in all the quilts.

 

See the quilt display on the

 Quilters’ Gallery Pages.

 

Watch for the next mystery quilt class being offered in January 2010.

9th Annual Shop Hop

 October  1, 2 & 3

.

We have shortened the time to shop hop, but added lots of fun activities and prizes.  Grand prize, Janome Sewing machine, additional prizes- quilts; lots of free patterns will be given  to shop hoppers too! 

Flight of the Dancing Crane is a new collection from Northcott.  This line of fabrics is in the store now and although Asian in nature, it is very subtle tone.  Rose and teal are the predominant colours and I can see the pattern Magic Tiles would look stunning made from this grouping. 

Currently on display until the 20th of June - Reflections of Canada.  This traveling trunk show of Canadian quilts inspired by thimbleberries Canadian collection is fun to see.
