June/July


Here is a mixed issue of our summer show and tell. Sorry to be so tardy on the posts. I was away last month and the summer is quickly getting away from me!

Life is short and summer is shorter!

We are two short months away from our fall quilt show. This is the first year we are holding the show in the fall. I hope many of you can make it up to Flin Flon to join us.

We were tickled to hear from a few recipients of our Canada Day placemats we made for Meals on Wheels. This beautiful lady is Mrs. Elizabeth Sochan. She is the mother of our members Bev and Evelyn O. Thanks for sharing this lovely picture with us!

Helen is a quilting machine! She doesn't sleep!



June has been busy. I love the bold colors she usually works with!



July

Marg made this stunner and quilted it on her small machine. Quite a feat!


Phyllis shows off a cathedral windows. She is donating this lovely throw to the Lee boys in town .. these two brothers are world class wrestlers. They are making quite the name for themselves across the globe and are extremely talented. Even more so considering that the town does not have a wrestling coach. I hope this quilt can fund one of their globe trotting trips.


She also came up with this black and blue dissappearing nine patch.


We can finally show off this lovely quilt made by Sandra. It was a wedding gift for her daughter Heather who got hitched last Saturday. Heather loves old fashioned blocks with modern twists and told her mom that happy homes have yellow in the quilts. This dresden plate is a classic. I know it will be cherished. 



I couldn't resist showing off the wonderful quilting that Kathy does. Kathy moved to Ontario but we can't let her go!


There is a beautiful person with the brightest, broadest smile behind this quilt.


 Gladys shows off a lovely fall table runner. Yes, friends, fall is around the corner!


Another hidden model. This quilt will be raffled at our show in September. Another reason for you to come!

Evelyn shows off her animal instincts with this cool quilt


Audrey? Is that you?


Lorna has a new baby in the family


And Lorna H models a guild comfort quilt. We just can't get through all of our stash!


I'm happy to show off my low volume scrap quilt. I only threw about four cuss words while making this one.


Happy summer! 
May your geraniums bloom and your thread never break. To sunny days and full bobbins. See you next month.
