Twelve members came out to help with our latest projects. Completed quilts were turned in, comfort blocks were handed in and plans are under way for our raffle quilts for the fall and the Christmas craft sales. Lynn shared with us the fabrics she purchased to fulfill part of our wish list as well as fabrics for our raffle quilts for which she also had the patterns.</p><p><br /></p><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEje1u_CkPGWtMpUjUyuN7Ygw6KZzVgJOmr-h08pBFl8FPIz7cprX8iamwYdxWc9rww-lEJUak1zsBoUbJnnkwFOVubyO2DWMmpYAlDfPacp98OtwN-NsVxE_FdcVqkSAZOR5Bs1sD-1Kts0UWEF3vHdV5L6mf6F-F4n5Vh1QQXlVsS3Zx3ddYn1uz4tTBTs/s4032/IMG_1801.jpeg" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" data-original-height="4032" data-original-width="3024" height="640" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEje1u_CkPGWtMpUjUyuN7Ygw6KZzVgJOmr-h08pBFl8FPIz7cprX8iamwYdxWc9rww-lEJUak1zsBoUbJnnkwFOVubyO2DWMmpYAlDfPacp98OtwN-NsVxE_FdcVqkSAZOR5Bs1sD-1Kts0UWEF3vHdV5L6mf6F-F4n5Vh1QQXlVsS3Zx3ddYn1uz4tTBTs/w480-h640/IMG_1801.jpeg" width="480" /></a></div><p>Nadine quilted “It Takes a Village” which we are donating to the pool fundraising committee.

Heather started it with her tragedy. She stitched this lovely quilt for a friend who is fighting cancer. The pattern is called Nomad. When she completed it, she washed it before gifting it. When she was taking it from the dryer, she heard popping sounds. Upon investigation she realized that her threads were breaking. She made some sample patches and quilted them with different thread brands and pulled them this way and that, no popping. Then she examined her quilt more closely. Many of her blocks are bias cuts and all her quilting is also on the bias. The stretching of all these bias lines is making stitches pop with each tug! She demonstrated! Scary! Now she has to decide how she can stabilize the work. A lot of work and expense, truly a tragedy!</div><div><br /></div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEj5tsyW5ulpwVgn11xP5ZaAC5fOLNzV1fN8r7XpkSbKjESPoIr0gGsJydm1Z07P6SDMFuYVq3IY6mtnutUyz6wSG-0Vtb3TjiZu-Jtg545FVQMDcBAeDYdOokiEYgvkIlrVf2yPUWqXbGzYSWTPJmxxxrOZER7s7dLlcNY61N2Aij3qRkBaDo9Toawqt0gJ/s4032/IMG_1810.jpeg" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" data-original-height="4032" data-original-width="3024" height="640" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEj5tsyW5ulpwVgn11xP5ZaAC5fOLNzV1fN8r7XpkSbKjESPoIr0gGsJydm1Z07P6SDMFuYVq3IY6mtnutUyz6wSG-0Vtb3TjiZu-Jtg545FVQMDcBAeDYdOokiEYgvkIlrVf2yPUWqXbGzYSWTPJmxxxrOZER7s7dLlcNY61N2Aij3qRkBaDo9Toawqt0gJ/w480-h640/IMG_1810.jpeg" width="480" /></a></div><br /><div>Heather’s second piece was the lovely Trailing Star.

The pattern is called Three Step and was purchased from Annie’s. The narrow strips are navy and set the colours off nicely. The binding was supposed to be navy but I was short on fabric so used 5” pieces of block fabric to make a flange. Because the flange is fairly wide , I top stitched it down. All in all I was quite pleased with the end result!<div><br /></div><div>Our next UFO/beginner’s class is Saturday, March 2nd. Don’t forget our Spring Retreat, May 3rd and 4th.

I remember clearly the world wide panic about Y2K and all the terrible things that could happen at the turn of the century. Truly, a lot of terrible things are happening but none of it has anything to do with Y2K!</p><p>We had a good turnout for guild even though a good number of our members have departed for warmer climates. After a day like today, I’m quite happy to be here in Creighton/Flin Flon!</p><p>We were able to complete six quilts today that were in various stages, some needing quilting, others binding and so forth.

It made for some extra work but is well worth the effort.</p><p>Most of the afternoon was spent sorting through flannels and cutting pieces for more baby quilts.

Everyone had their challenge pieces handed in, ready to be voted upon, cookies or dainties were accumulating in the kitchen for the evening’s consumption and people were constantly coming and going so I have no idea how many members actually attended. </p><p>We did accomplish a number of things. Three quilts were pin basted ready for quilting. Sandra D. brought a set of clamps and demonstrated how to use them for stretching the quilt backings so they would be very tight and make it easier to pin. Because the quilt sandwich is pinned more tightly the quilting will be more efficient with the result being a smoother backing. Every quild day we learn a new technique that will make us better quilters.</p><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEhArxNlt7NVO84JC-brItFsv1wivYhKcGoovR8HYN8xCUDd-bFXvfyEI1zPrnAt-VtLKWxiq1bbWotOcapopQXUT3lRz6JT365hvGpIxkPvuidplpNGH85r1JrV1X3lx4TL1z2_Eyme0FMIys0si3DRrIwnIS0YaL12VDliVkA6aMGXP4HPWqyDml-CxjV6/s4032/IMG_1675.jpeg" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em;

In her words the fabric “spoke” to her. She answered the challenge very ably. Someone will be very happy to receive this quilt when completed.</p><p>Our evening meeting was attended by 21 members. We were reminded to complete our Challenge piece, a Christmas or Winter theme, to be handed in to Lynn on December 19, preferably in the morning. Also a reminder to bring three 2 1/2 inch wof strips for our game and if bringing a guest, 3 strips for them as well. A catered meal will be served at 5:30, check with Lynn for details. Don’t forget your dozen dainties and a mug for Christmas punch.</p><p>A list was passed around for ticket sellers at the Cranberry Portage Christmas sale, and because I have been so slow in getting this blog published, I can announce that the lucky winner of our raffle quilt was Agnes Mills! Congratulations, Agnes!</p><p> We had a number of lovely pieces for our Show and Tell.</p><p><br /></p><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEgKKqKpsZnyJdiXcry-k9v-TxLLpgOcE_uimE88oiLryj5hOIAXrOwuu8F8rjCrxnrOh7mR2wfvV-pQSw8oUHQTpwle5trirFgS9f-iZwlZ9Y4MVVfgX0tIvBLZmbGWNOFgCoxKvbYsIf5rZ7OIQPQVT3DC3je8C2tMsktfS0INS3SDOq3SlfYsfMnkPLJ1/s4032/IMG_1605.jpeg" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" data-original-height="4032" data-original-width="3024" height="640" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEgKKqKpsZnyJdiXcry-k9v-TxLLpgOcE_uimE88oiLryj5hOIAXrOwuu8F8rjCrxnrOh7mR2wfvV-pQSw8oUHQTpwle5trirFgS9f-iZwlZ9Y4MVVfgX0tIvBLZmbGWNOFgCoxKvbYsIf5rZ7OIQPQVT3DC3je8C2tMsktfS0INS3SDOq3SlfYsfMnkPLJ1/w480-h640/IMG_1605.jpeg" width="480" /></a></div><br /><p>Rae had her Fat Quarter Shop quilt at Mami’s for quilting.

I decided to make a little dog for our great grandson (our son’s grandson) so he could enjoy it as much as his granddad had done. It took some deep digging to find the fifty year old pattern, but thankfully I still had it. I can’t remember if I bought the pattern or was given it by my mother.

Three quilt tops were completed and are ready to be taken to be long arm quilted as well as two baby rag quilts. The rag quilts were courtesy of Eileen who was purging her stash and made a very generous donation of flannels and batting to the guild. Thank you, Eileen, we will certainly put everything to good use!</p><p>We now have enough blocks to make up two quilts of valour, one with a red centre log cabin block and the other with a yellow centre. Thank you Sheri for working on this project.</p><p>We are looking for the return of any quilt kits that may be out to members as November is our donation month and it is rapidly approaching.</p><p><br /></p><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEidHQBHMIQuHutOgcT1SvH2OO5E1JiK1TS1EcBss6g4UIoBUNkWTAyXzfZQ_VvggNsSimH-Vc9kiCVQIxDJg6JJVY6CaRfZeBgFCvbhCBNMejO30FrCkparybQh7JwHgBxQ0bXpKaUh7hHSZTZ8bMW_fPJFrsUSELm0aYdUZlZwFPMC7Z_Sw9_a83bm5cwT/s4032/IMG_1438.jpeg" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" data-original-height="4032" data-original-width="3024" height="640" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEidHQBHMIQuHutOgcT1SvH2OO5E1JiK1TS1EcBss6g4UIoBUNkWTAyXzfZQ_VvggNsSimH-Vc9kiCVQIxDJg6JJVY6CaRfZeBgFCvbhCBNMejO30FrCkparybQh7JwHgBxQ0bXpKaUh7hHSZTZ8bMW_fPJFrsUSELm0aYdUZlZwFPMC7Z_Sw9_a83bm5cwT/w480-h640/IMG_1438.jpeg" width="480" /></a></div><p>This Paddington Bear quilt was stitched and quilted by Myrna.

The larger throat space along with the large quilting table make the task easier.

Two backings were made up as well as one quilt being pin basted ready for quilting.<div><br /></div><div>The second little house quilt is now at the border stage and the blocks for the gray and yellow friendship stars are being joined. Once we get the rest of the blocks from the members we can complete that top. If anyone has a kit out for those blocks and doesn’t have the time to complete it, please bring it in at our August guild day and someone will finish it up.</div><div><br /></div><div>We had three guests at our meeting, Susan came out in the afternoon and then came to the meeting and joined our guild. Welcome, Susan, we’re happy to have you with us! Also present was Randi, Dallas’s daughter-in-law. Randi is not a quilter but does a lot of sewing of clothing and accessories. She does the sewing to showcase fabrics for various fabric companies. Our third quest was honourary member, Darby, who accompanied her mother. Always nice to have you here, Darby! </div><div><br /></div><div>Rae gave us an update on the Ukrainian refugee families for whom we stitched and donated quilts. There are two families who now each have their own homes and are working in their community. They are very thankful to our guild for the quilts we gifted them.

It is pieced by machine and quilted by hand. Sandra said her mother was an exceptional quilter. She completed a Star quilt for each of her five children as well as many others gifted to various people. If you look closely at the quilt you can see what a wonderful quilter she was. She added more stars and borders because she was not a fan of square quilts.<div><br /></div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEh55BXPI9UM1jCadYLRjoPKz9FReEykyRuar0RquHxqD1F-Tvqp_RQZND5kKasFJxWJ9Gst3mMpXL318HC6Zw_z_KyUisrbOe-5cKsZr6yvmW1oAXcRZvgk2eZbK71iMe6PhjXUlAr5iD7uWp9GHekY0BYMkC_w0mt-L0g9zD6wm7Q8moMCOfnVXwea-lxc/s4032/IMG_1123.jpeg" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" data-original-height="4032" data-original-width="3024" height="640" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEh55BXPI9UM1jCadYLRjoPKz9FReEykyRuar0RquHxqD1F-Tvqp_RQZND5kKasFJxWJ9Gst3mMpXL318HC6Zw_z_KyUisrbOe-5cKsZr6yvmW1oAXcRZvgk2eZbK71iMe6PhjXUlAr5iD7uWp9GHekY0BYMkC_w0mt-L0g9zD6wm7Q8moMCOfnVXwea-lxc/w480-h640/IMG_1123.jpeg" width="480" /></a></div><br /><div>To honour both her mother and also her late mother-in-law, Sandra created a very special memory quilt. This is a reversible quilt. On this side she used fabrics from clothing worn by her mother-in-law, in her favourite vibrant pink and purple colours. The pattern she used was Not Your Mothers Rail Fence from Highway 10 Designs. Because the fabrics were mostly rayons, Sandra had to mount them on muslin to stabilize them so she used a quilt as you go method to assemble the blocks.</div><div><br /></div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEiPF0gp_BML6yJj_f6wbQEtMBF3-LGybyvLSdH8ILI7IZq8WWJ_hjwcmxSUgSz8PHikUP1DH8WnCbDCHyDg0PkbuMoB0mob1Juv5tcAJSmVbuu9oEj3qWdO3e2AfbVJvAfWiFON4xTKz28KJh4ijRqoUhOl54MI_woKOIzfDFymRkFt-FYxW7ITWvWQUjWX/s4032/IMG_1119.jpeg" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" data-original-height="4032" data-original-width="3024" height="640" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEiPF0gp_BML6yJj_f6wbQEtMBF3-LGybyvLSdH8ILI7IZq8WWJ_hjwcmxSUgSz8PHikUP1DH8WnCbDCHyDg0PkbuMoB0mob1Juv5tcAJSmVbuu9oEj3qWdO3e2AfbVJvAfWiFON4xTKz28KJh4ijRqoUhOl54MI_woKOIzfDFymRkFt-FYxW7ITWvWQUjWX/w480-h640/IMG_1119.jpeg" width="480" /></a></div><div><br /><div>On the reverse of the quilt she created a pattern to remember her mother. Because both these ladies quilted with whatever fabric they had on hand or could repurpose from elsewhere, Sandra chose to use the sheets that were used on her mother’s bed in the care home she was in. Everything she had was marked with her room number, 4032, which still can be seen in the corner of the quilt. After going through a bag of fabric bits and pieces that her mother had, she found some of the extra partial stars that her mother used on her star quilt, and added them to the memory quilt. There were five of them to match the five siblings. When Sandra placed the strips with her mother’s information she did it to match the position of the rails on the reverse side so that when it came to the quilting she could stitch in the ditch on the rails and the stitching highlighted the information bars. By using free motion quilting around the florals in the clothing fabrics she was able to fill the negative space around the information bars.</div><div><br /><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEjEPcuqLCSJ8C1CA6sC5HX80OuPA0rAbcrEeqYwkvhDkW6S9bRb7gfN2kcVRRexbrVIiEdfkY18jJ8uTFvEeLn8xYMvfTNeIe2Q8Z_xoJpwOxnpsNRPHsWlowXyV1769aSCGZ6_2JOZhiia2bl0_pUod5DboyTtFQflP8QrCp6A7pjAKfKXlYtD0D3nWXJt/s4032/IMG_1122.jpeg" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" data-original-height="4032" data-original-width="3024" height="640" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEjEPcuqLCSJ8C1CA6sC5HX80OuPA0rAbcrEeqYwkvhDkW6S9bRb7gfN2kcVRRexbrVIiEdfkY18jJ8uTFvEeLn8xYMvfTNeIe2Q8Z_xoJpwOxnpsNRPHsWlowXyV1769aSCGZ6_2JOZhiia2bl0_pUod5DboyTtFQflP8QrCp6A7pjAKfKXlYtD0D3nWXJt/w480-h640/IMG_1122.jpeg" width="480" /></a></div><br /></div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><br /></div><br /><div>By very careful thought and placement she was able to create not only a memory quilt but was also able to reflect the personalities of the two women.

Gardening needs to be done, spring clean up time is here and somewhere we find time for our quilting! Guild day was well attended. During the day we had as many as 13 people coming and going. Everyone was multi-tasking, quilting, running errands, shopping and whatever else needed doing. We pin basted 4 quilts ready for members to take home and hone their quilting skills. Another group was busy putting together the batik comfort blocks which needed sashing and corner stones. Sandra S. quilted another baby quilt and applied binding so it is now ready for the hand stitching.</p><p><br /></p><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEgPvWuPvkCdrVAAEDIzt7tTLxgq2xIlSVac_OpWC5P6eH8piAehuxsM5pvZLNvXeXnJ_1-U-7_agzuKYXGxLCqSrm0KmuI91efnPi6lNn67LQLyrL1EMAt2Mv3mGCT4q5bZDccXH1rBgIJIf3fRzNn7Ty7THANKWDWkBEtzW-Xwe0no-jTxGA6tvi8TlQ/s4032/IMG_1021.jpeg" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" data-original-height="4032" data-original-width="3024" height="640" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEgPvWuPvkCdrVAAEDIzt7tTLxgq2xIlSVac_OpWC5P6eH8piAehuxsM5pvZLNvXeXnJ_1-U-7_agzuKYXGxLCqSrm0KmuI91efnPi6lNn67LQLyrL1EMAt2Mv3mGCT4q5bZDccXH1rBgIJIf3fRzNn7Ty7THANKWDWkBEtzW-Xwe0no-jTxGA6tvi8TlQ/w480-h640/IMG_1021.jpeg" width="480" /></a></div><br /><p> Sandra is getting very proficient at the quilting, both free motion and walking foot method.</p><p><br /></p><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEj160MTfR8_OUWzYi7Ebpb0vmKRVnsGLRqb24EO0wUs5STeP-CXuyTJWI1YaUeKOd-xHJVVqkfi6YrmKvkxtAhLborY1exnSy1E9gPUuR-E8OaWpMbR5x1NdjQA8DWtzNpJqvzemdlsSh8DCtl9O2eQvLRRyAmqAT_INEvo88QGfYyMDVxbkYFfqh_jxg/s4032/IMG_1020.jpeg" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" data-original-height="4032" data-original-width="3024" height="640" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEj160MTfR8_OUWzYi7Ebpb0vmKRVnsGLRqb24EO0wUs5STeP-CXuyTJWI1YaUeKOd-xHJVVqkfi6YrmKvkxtAhLborY1exnSy1E9gPUuR-E8OaWpMbR5x1NdjQA8DWtzNpJqvzemdlsSh8DCtl9O2eQvLRRyAmqAT_INEvo88QGfYyMDVxbkYFfqh_jxg/w480-h640/IMG_1020.jpeg" width="480" /></a></div><div><br /></div>Rae is laying out the batik squares and pinning the sashing and corner stones so Sandra D. can stitch them. <div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><br /></div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><br /></div><br /><div><br /><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEiRl4a7iai0_bwJZfl82KOSViHynF-M3elx9LRgKY19xR7lCDK-VKAHUECdz9jIO8ZPc0k7ZmBsG8uwv7H3OM0k3IRXy2UopRRqDwjh2QG59thprSSnm94_u5J0c1JQtmcaKLqugL8X4ogsPcR2oyiBttIGkYlUSYZtmM36rlg8BLZhv9ArhQ1lolckyQ/s4032/IMG_1019.jpeg" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" data-original-height="4032" data-original-width="3024" height="640" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEiRl4a7iai0_bwJZfl82KOSViHynF-M3elx9LRgKY19xR7lCDK-VKAHUECdz9jIO8ZPc0k7ZmBsG8uwv7H3OM0k3IRXy2UopRRqDwjh2QG59thprSSnm94_u5J0c1JQtmcaKLqugL8X4ogsPcR2oyiBttIGkYlUSYZtmM36rlg8BLZhv9ArhQ1lolckyQ/w480-h640/IMG_1019.jpeg" width="480" /></a></div><div><br /></div>The finished top is very attractive.

She started the quilt in 2013 as a mystery quilt and as the name of the quilt, Alternate Routes, suggests, there were many for Melanie. As often happens, life can get in the way of our quilting and so it was with her. She persevered and made those many, many triangles and was able to finish it in time to share with us before she will be moving. We wish you happiness in your new home in Winnipeg and are sorry to see you go.

On that day, 25 years ago, the North Star Quilt Guild held its first meeting in what was then the Art Room of the Community Hall. A group of ladies who shared a love of fabric, creating and collaborating wanted to gather to share, learn, and create together. Among the group were Rae Baumgartner, Sandra Dixon, Evelyn Black, Lorna Heuchert, Marg Faktor and Linda Lautimus who remain as members to the present day. Initially meetings were held the first and third Tuesday evening of each month. A short business meeting was followed by a program and fellowship. The program included a Block of the Month, a draw for blocks, a demonstration of a new technique or project, and the highlight, Show and Tell. During Show and Tell members would bring quilted pieces or ones in progress, where advice and direction were needed. Challenges posed by members, mystery quilt alongs, and other sew alongs introduced members to new techniques and enhanced their artist talents.</p><p>Over the past 25 years the North Star Quilt Guild has evolved. The meetings have remained very similar but now instead of meeting at the Green Room, the Community Hall, or McIsaac School home ec. room, the guild works on projects and holds meetings at Northminster United Church. The first Saturday of each month is UFO day (unfinished objects) when members work on personal projects from 9:00 am to 4:00 pm. The third Tuesday of each month is Guild day from 9:00 am to 4:00 pm, followed by a meeting from 7:00 pm to 9:00 pm. During the day members work on comfort quilts which will be donated to local organizations in Flin Flon, Creighton, Denare Beach and Cranberry Portage for distribution to families and children in need. As well the quild donates to more far reaching groups such as refugees, victims of wild fires and floods, Quilts of Valour for wounded veterans, and Quilts of Remembrance for families of military lost in active duty. After the bus crash of the Humboldt Broncos hockey team, the guild contributed a number of quilts to those distributed to victims, their families and first responders who attended the crash. Also receiving quilts are individuals and families who have serious illnesses or who are victims of house fires. In addition, the guild has sewn wheelchair quilts for the Northern Lights Manor and Flin Flon Personal Care Home, lap quilts for the Lions Handivan riders, placemats for Meals on Wheels, as well as quilts for the chemo centre and dialysis centre at Flin Flon General Hospital. Quilts have been donated to local organizations to aid in their fund raising efforts. The most recent project is to provide emergency agencies such as the RCMP and local fire departments with quilts to provide victims warmth and caring during devastating situations.</p><p>The first quilt show was held in September of 1998 with biennial shows thereafter. The focus of the quilt shows was to showcase the members’ personal artistic talents. Quilt shop vendors were invited to sell their wares to satisfy the quilting needs of members and the public at large. The last show was held in September of 2018. The implications of the pandemic, declining membership, more people travelling to warmer climes for the winter, plus the increasing ages of our members, necessitated an alternate format to showcase our personal artistic talents and our commitment to support our community. Most recently we displayed our 24 x 24 challenge pieces at NORVA and have coordinated displays at Culture days and other community events.</p><p>The guild has been fortunate to have new members join the guild over the years and more are always welcome. Learn to Quilt classes resumed this fall after Covid stopped in person gatherings and necessitated meeting via Zoom.</p><p>The pandemic also forced another adjustment as the desire to create and provide warmth and comfort to those in need remained. Kits with fabrics and instructions were compiled and distributed to members so quilt tops were being sewn and quilted even though we couldn’t demonstrate a monthly comfort block or gather to sew as a group. This allowed us to complete enough quilts for our annual donations.</p><p>During the past 25 years of the North Star Quilt Guild’s existence, in excess of 1250 quilts have been donated. Because of the enthusiasm of North Star Quilt Guild members and their love of sewing, the guild hopes to continue these services for many more years. The North Star Quilt Guild provides fellowship, new friends, the learning of new techniques, fires our creativeness, hones our skills, and gives good reason to continue with our sewing passion! Here’s to another 25 years! Cheers!</p><p><br /></p><p></p></div></div>NSQGhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/13552825336551678961noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8364959407527362031.post-16278206450830269602023-04-24T11:20:00.005-07:002023-04-24T11:20:53.607-07:00April 18, 2023. Guild Day and meeting.<p> We were happy to welcome back a lot of our snowbird members today. So happy to see their smiling tanned faces! Of course we put them right to work! Labels were sewn onto 5 quilts, one large and one smaller quilt were pin basted, and two baby quilts had binding stitched onto them.</p><p>Sandra S. free motion quilted a baby quilt so it is ready for binding and another quilt top had borders added so it will be ready for pin basting at the next quild day.</p><p>More quilt kits were put together for members to take home and stitch. Donna and Patty continued with the inventory. Today they were going through the fabric bins. A lot of pieces were counted! We will be able to make many scrappy quilt tops!</p><p>Lynn and Phyl were busy making up kits for a small project that members will be able to take part in at our retreat on May 5th and 6th. We will be celebrating the quilts 25th anniversary with a celebratory cake on Saturday at 2:00 PM!</p><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEh1IO-3iKintSycUrr895SlQYGFJwCSM0cHbZEIJaNVkUKtmljSewgKTdKcXH_j6XClMuzxBGsQBdhUavIvFyZK1pQjj5cl1BWzDwdVmYkHf_YBK43xiswbVIHwiqLA6o8nfRBKIspvMWA1qD03czC7fcAJWw65k_9jPKV7xFFfHgxXF_z3UHaDeEQNEg/s4032/5DE2C114-7E4B-4976-BA40-BA6ED1118F38.jpeg" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" data-original-height="4032" data-original-width="3024" height="640" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEh1IO-3iKintSycUrr895SlQYGFJwCSM0cHbZEIJaNVkUKtmljSewgKTdKcXH_j6XClMuzxBGsQBdhUavIvFyZK1pQjj5cl1BWzDwdVmYkHf_YBK43xiswbVIHwiqLA6o8nfRBKIspvMWA1qD03czC7fcAJWw65k_9jPKV7xFFfHgxXF_z3UHaDeEQNEg/w480-h640/5DE2C114-7E4B-4976-BA40-BA6ED1118F38.jpeg" width="480" /></a></div><br /><p>Evelyn is binding a quilt while Dallas is sorting fabric for the inventory.

This particular top was made with the Five and Dime ruler which we have in our quilters library. She demonstrated how the ruler worked and it’s pretty nifty! You use a Layer Cake pack (which is 10” square) and a Charm pack ( which is 5” square) and you can make a quilt top. The process is simple and sews up fairly quickly. Thank you Phyl, I’m sure we’ll see several Five and Dime quilts before long.</div><div><br /></div><div>Lynn purchased some fabrics while she was away. We decided she would get the long distance prize as her winter vacation was a trip to Japan! She shared some awesome photos taken at the Tokyo quilt show. The workmanship was unbelievable and beautiful.</div><div><br /></div><div>Once again we had a very successful quild day. There is never a shortage of work to be done. Thank you to all the members who come out and lend their help and expertise. I find it amazing how many times I’ve picked up hints and tips from fellow members while we are working on the comfort quilts.

We had ten ladies present during the day working on comfort quilts. Donna and her helpers were busy doing an inventory of guild equipment ie. irons, ironing boards, cutting mats, rulers, scissors, tapes, power bars, electrical cords, to name only a few items. Needless to say, there was more to inventory than we had anticipated. This needed to be done for insurance purposes.</p><p>Four baby quilts were pin basted so members could take them home to quilt. As well, borders were cut for a large quilt so they could be completed and attached next month. Sandra S. machine quilted the purple 3 yard quilt that had waited patiently for several months for someone to complete it.</p><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEg7e2qSqFCwzsh-5XCyq1VyDm1HAQKr4S6-wP6awNOATQIpriNP5XHyyyonB48WKjo2W7_HMXn7EHrltfarLZ3jnXx50RX6pO37EAqc4ElKID_cjQOCxbYhz1_Pk9u230S9OMtbmPv7qTiO1bTEt4lYXih74Q7_S6398kOjnw9PXSpqfcqUvls0DGCziA/s4032/DB0C9852-42A8-479C-813D-525D02B41CA4.jpeg" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" data-original-height="4032" data-original-width="3024" height="640" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEg7e2qSqFCwzsh-5XCyq1VyDm1HAQKr4S6-wP6awNOATQIpriNP5XHyyyonB48WKjo2W7_HMXn7EHrltfarLZ3jnXx50RX6pO37EAqc4ElKID_cjQOCxbYhz1_Pk9u230S9OMtbmPv7qTiO1bTEt4lYXih74Q7_S6398kOjnw9PXSpqfcqUvls0DGCziA/w480-h640/DB0C9852-42A8-479C-813D-525D02B41CA4.jpeg" width="480" /></a></div><br /><p>We were fortunate to have a donation of fabrics that included some panels suitable for baby quilts so they were being pin basted.</p><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEhYuh0WhsNbL_QAcafVEO2aDRcPxH9BTg2sXHGuL8-rTa7H3oJGgnQuwQQxwSOZtDIAj-SckZadv9JV9acCBWRmKW4Bunc1faREzxdpWX5d5waGHwQriKa0MgRcAD-MBTUvt0BOAideF81u6vBuTsuDxYxSGCXeer2SDGhyiD7dbP7IGDV0vus1lMElHQ/s4032/489A9B26-D688-48C5-8369-3F07B9E65B18.jpeg" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" data-original-height="4032" data-original-width="3024" height="640" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEhYuh0WhsNbL_QAcafVEO2aDRcPxH9BTg2sXHGuL8-rTa7H3oJGgnQuwQQxwSOZtDIAj-SckZadv9JV9acCBWRmKW4Bunc1faREzxdpWX5d5waGHwQriKa0MgRcAD-MBTUvt0BOAideF81u6vBuTsuDxYxSGCXeer2SDGhyiD7dbP7IGDV0vus1lMElHQ/w480-h640/489A9B26-D688-48C5-8369-3F07B9E65B18.jpeg" width="480" /></a></div><br /><p>Sandra is showing the concentration that is needed for free motion quilting.

Our first challenge was displayed at the last quilt show before Covid, while the second challenge, the tangerine challenge, was to be presented at the next quilt show. That show did not happen so the challenge was postponed until our fall retreat in 2022 at which time we revealed our work. To get a wider audience for our work, we approached NORVA to see if they would be interested in setting up a display. February was the time!</p><p>The following three photos are of the tangerine challenge revealed at our fall retreat.</p><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEgWrO3D_40CbicMgLOAAlN3-GQpAcixsstE4HOaVlIdpOoZEaAmGVv3h5FAIbN2Tc_yV790BxVisUqWCuFDKG2E_EfklXXVHg7irc8wD3CtImYUQC303fPGs2Z9Evj6JTy6piNOyl9Xf71avKyD917UAL2mUxaK0MePqiud4A200GKUBzjHbKoZ1z7vjg/s4032/81E0DA57-225B-47A4-8F62-25562266E29A.jpeg" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" data-original-height="3024" data-original-width="4032" height="480" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEgWrO3D_40CbicMgLOAAlN3-GQpAcixsstE4HOaVlIdpOoZEaAmGVv3h5FAIbN2Tc_yV790BxVisUqWCuFDKG2E_EfklXXVHg7irc8wD3CtImYUQC303fPGs2Z9Evj6JTy6piNOyl9Xf71avKyD917UAL2mUxaK0MePqiud4A200GKUBzjHbKoZ1z7vjg/w640-h480/81E0DA57-225B-47A4-8F62-25562266E29A.jpeg" width="640" /></a></div><br /><p> From left to right: Sandra S, Lynn, Sheri</p><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEjhC3op9BNheTdCaacvTbrwAc8C1vyyEixoH1LfibeCDGhzaeCj5OoBN011x6h2RfCTN8F3hZ0ND8mrNZMfNZcZjNCiyWLW8CzgJkIzFTfWJIWXrSjO3TK1UjJlXRjf6XlBRk0TxOvPEuhaHnFCLN8rh_z_ZAWxCyPUOYm3qhF6aqHX7nTKjMXkDkhfvg/s4032/72B80E0B-58B1-4234-805A-4AC923828B77.jpeg" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" data-original-height="3024" data-original-width="4032" height="480" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEjhC3op9BNheTdCaacvTbrwAc8C1vyyEixoH1LfibeCDGhzaeCj5OoBN011x6h2RfCTN8F3hZ0ND8mrNZMfNZcZjNCiyWLW8CzgJkIzFTfWJIWXrSjO3TK1UjJlXRjf6XlBRk0TxOvPEuhaHnFCLN8rh_z_ZAWxCyPUOYm3qhF6aqHX7nTKjMXkDkhfvg/w640-h480/72B80E0B-58B1-4234-805A-4AC923828B77.jpeg" width="640" /></a></div><br /><p> Gladys, Marg, Lorna.</p><p><br /></p><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEjMJ3nkF8VCn23IHK7f6rtEtIkJx3UzhKkmCfV6FHcqQvHOxW5IybfE9itU67QAWIzuxne0aXP2ekPh6WEW0BOVgOxod_5s8gtr7XCbluyvBRzv_GqafsatqOhnQZfPcyHbDcceRam2rH7eCFXAK6T6IpMeT-dATkZjPGNUa7BB5WTjSvBqiN-SgA16Dg/s4032/8DDF1EC1-986E-474D-838A-FA1C79240A8C.jpeg" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" data-original-height="3024" data-original-width="4032" height="480" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEjMJ3nkF8VCn23IHK7f6rtEtIkJx3UzhKkmCfV6FHcqQvHOxW5IybfE9itU67QAWIzuxne0aXP2ekPh6WEW0BOVgOxod_5s8gtr7XCbluyvBRzv_GqafsatqOhnQZfPcyHbDcceRam2rH7eCFXAK6T6IpMeT-dATkZjPGNUa7BB5WTjSvBqiN-SgA16Dg/w640-h480/8DDF1EC1-986E-474D-838A-FA1C79240A8C.jpeg" width="640" /></a></div><br /><p> Cindy, Sandra D., Rae, Patty B.</p><p> </p><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEgoxutVyH4AXxWrQ-0Muww74AsNUUNMum6TUbTrtgwP14jM9htJqYWJv7_CDZFXjLbp7kzA09DroB-SONVrh_pGsCfBC5HUWsxO-K84qdh-48-VA_oouu__xKN2yGooZjPa3FnB_Jf2UlyOIWbK4VKt8rvBd2i-1-RXYSKaskeOk7Ua0vGfiJJ_bS3Nng/s4032/D0C03CE4-AF1D-488A-BBED-CBC0A181BF13.jpeg" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" data-original-height="3024" data-original-width="4032" height="480" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEgoxutVyH4AXxWrQ-0Muww74AsNUUNMum6TUbTrtgwP14jM9htJqYWJv7_CDZFXjLbp7kzA09DroB-SONVrh_pGsCfBC5HUWsxO-K84qdh-48-VA_oouu__xKN2yGooZjPa3FnB_Jf2UlyOIWbK4VKt8rvBd2i-1-RXYSKaskeOk7Ua0vGfiJJ_bS3Nng/w640-h480/D0C03CE4-AF1D-488A-BBED-CBC0A181BF13.jpeg" width="640" /></a></div><br /><p>These seven pieces were from the first challenge that we displayed at the quilt show.

Hopefully you did not have to fly anywhere!</p><p>This month’s guild day was spent mostly preparing for our Guild Christmas party. Members were bringing in their donations for the silent auction, one of our highlights. A big thank you to Lorna and Sandra D. for organizing and setting up the auction items.

That is a very important part that saves a lot of “unsewing”!</p><p><br /></p><p>A new feature of our party this year was a catered supper prior to the big festivities. Tammy served a delicious meal for those who were able to attend which was then followed by our meeting, show and tell, bidding on the silent auction and our fat quarter exchange for which Donna did a stellar job of writing a left, right story!

With Sheri’s help I think I’m ready to take over the blog, so here we go!</p><p>The October meeting was when Myrna and I turned over the presidency to Lynn and Phyl. These ladies have some great ideas to continue with our mission of serving our communities.</p><p>Lynn’s quilt-along group is working on a star blanket quilt top. The star is constructed without using y-seams. By spring we should be able to see how they turned out. Sandra has already finished hers. You’ll see it in the show and tell for November.</p><p style="text-align: center;">Doing a blog involves a learning curve for me so please be patient with me if I make mistakes!</p><blockquote><blockquote><span><a name='more'></a></span><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEiSNZtxICuXiVKCOwiR81MNm5_uHsAXeu3uzU8CQcGjUah3lAUPmIeuRhs6CkOGR7xdGUP9v8ohKeoVo1_izbc6bn68kAZN2rS7p-qQND3SSq4P2k0AQpSDa-ePsPx-J5TpZczbLN-sZJsXLy0nA_y950dgaKvJvU7s2TzrmkbBXi_kRtWO8_1ceeKiPQ/s4032/D5F24F80-C9B3-49AC-BFAD-1C31D31D1548.jpeg" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" data-original-height="4032" data-original-width="3024" height="640" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEiSNZtxICuXiVKCOwiR81MNm5_uHsAXeu3uzU8CQcGjUah3lAUPmIeuRhs6CkOGR7xdGUP9v8ohKeoVo1_izbc6bn68kAZN2rS7p-qQND3SSq4P2k0AQpSDa-ePsPx-J5TpZczbLN-sZJsXLy0nA_y950dgaKvJvU7s2TzrmkbBXi_kRtWO8_1ceeKiPQ/w480-h640/D5F24F80-C9B3-49AC-BFAD-1C31D31D1548.jpeg" width="480" /><br /></a><br /><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">Sheri and Darby are ready for Halloween with this ghostly table runner, or wall hanging, whichever they choose!</div></div><br /><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEhPPbrXGOh7OSlxPC6vxr1_d5oBrQVQdPuih878Uw5iIaeOKPxYEa6cS74IQExmLfQd23U6AeC4E9jbhvMtXi5G2mbR-ppdNrPeaCuQCdGJrrMvS5U1qiL7i9p2JnptjtWfiRIotagV8BlnmZnHYcEcvSz9GINwfaPRzcX_ByaLgwY8Er27fAPQ_lBjDg/s4032/50B0B0A8-5E24-4A7B-B575-5861D65602DE.jpeg" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" data-original-height="4032" data-original-width="3024" height="640" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEhPPbrXGOh7OSlxPC6vxr1_d5oBrQVQdPuih878Uw5iIaeOKPxYEa6cS74IQExmLfQd23U6AeC4E9jbhvMtXi5G2mbR-ppdNrPeaCuQCdGJrrMvS5U1qiL7i9p2JnptjtWfiRIotagV8BlnmZnHYcEcvSz9GINwfaPRzcX_ByaLgwY8Er27fAPQ_lBjDg/w480-h640/50B0B0A8-5E24-4A7B-B575-5861D65602DE.jpeg" width="480" /></a></div>Here we see another of Sheri’s creations, a beautiful crib size quilt for some lucky young one.</blockquote></blockquote><p> </p><blockquote><blockquote><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEjKJAsxe1QBXHIP6miDisOxbLeB7mli6xgDLml2tDstmJg29cUTaCtUzHNaPsO7pTSA_OGj_HwDd4Q9TQlFcFatjAV19nQ2aIQ4g0Sbs1guAQrEnabh_r19sy07nB7UqOSj89MI5EJYNe8KOwB7kdxQyyEqjIYdCPkmaEk-uAeCh5cdjXsdl2PM8yfFtA/s4032/5EE80D6C-17E1-4395-9713-D6BA987C8BBE.jpeg" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" data-original-height="4032" data-original-width="3024" height="640" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEjKJAsxe1QBXHIP6miDisOxbLeB7mli6xgDLml2tDstmJg29cUTaCtUzHNaPsO7pTSA_OGj_HwDd4Q9TQlFcFatjAV19nQ2aIQ4g0Sbs1guAQrEnabh_r19sy07nB7UqOSj89MI5EJYNe8KOwB7kdxQyyEqjIYdCPkmaEk-uAeCh5cdjXsdl2PM8yfFtA/w480-h640/5EE80D6C-17E1-4395-9713-D6BA987C8BBE.jpeg" width="480" /></a></div>Sandra’s tangerine challenge was “Dancing in the Pumpkin Patch”.

It was so good to get together again - in person, eating together, having a few laughs and lots of sewing. </p><p>We showcased a quilt challenge and voted on 2 winners. This challenge has been 3 years in the making as Covid shut downs cancelled our quilt shows. We each had to use an orange fat quarter which was provided. You could use as much or little as you liked. Some of us (like me) lost the orange, scrambled to finish last minute, or say no thanks. I just love, love, love 💕 the work and creativity these ladies put into their 24” masterpiece. </p><p>Eileen </p><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEjKpDXRTyruxd1i4TVPLaj_Q3xnJ2dK-OfR0HmgErAWcEY3B0UJeqVpdp6aZnzdvP_w4KEjUaDE1xApeLE1n0CVoYcq2Ubs4MtAtSfEQx_tQRRZ9JhD0XZ0UNvS8_bZSPETn3uFtnkP96DuvBFR39jHpZQPc1CIYanLZoyR_mG9egrepA7Px7Yh6PikRg/s4032/1FD5AF6E-7904-4A1E-BF2C-A038D5486EAA.jpeg" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em;
