Here is a representative from the Supportive Living Program receiving a quilt which they are donating to one of their clients.
Several of the ladies started a quilt bag in the afternoon. Here they are proudly displaying their unfinished projects. The pattern for the quilt bag is in the book Jelly Roll Quilts, and can be found in our library.
The September 21 afternoon program will be personal quilting in the morning, preparation for Culture days program and guild projects in the afternoon.
Marg F will be available to sharpen scissors ($2.00 a pair).
The evening will include a guest speaking on Rx for Quilters and the first part of the new Mystery Quilt project will be revealed.
The new comfort block for September and October is called a Simple Pinwheel, as demonstrated by Audry. It will be used in quilts for the quilts for Valour program. Please bring back any leftover fabric.
The program for the evening was Quilting Basics and was demonstrated by various guild members.
