Today I took my parents into Vancouver. Dad had a specialist appointment first thing Monday morning. With the traffic and constant road construction, we have found it easiest to head into the city the night before and stay at a hotel. This is by far the least stressful way of dealing with travel to the city. On the way into Vancouver, we stopped in Delta at the Boundary Bay Quilters’ Guild show.
This cat quilt was my favorite quilt of the show. This lime green Hawaiian themed quilt was my second favorite. I love the mix of traditional Hawaiian applique on the border and the pieced pineapple blocks in the center. There was a huge display of bags and purses. I am always looking for new bag ideas. This grommet bag made from recycled blue jeans.
These table centers were favorites of my Mom’s. The guild had these on the tables in their tea room. Does anyone know what this pattern is called?
There were lots of vendors at this show. I bought a cute little pieced chicken quilt kit. Stay tuned for pictures of that one.
Hi there;
A couple of years ago one of the Boundary Bay Guild members taught this table topper several times :). The pattern is called Sew Easy Strata Star by Ruth Eckersley (2008). Fun Fast and Easy No Y seams No binding.
Happy quilting
