PieceMakers Quilt Show – Part 5

This is the last group of photos from our guild’s recent quilt show. Many members are waiting to see their quilts on line so I have posted many more pictures than I normally do after a quilt show. I hope you enjoyed the show! This is our We Care donation quilt display. Guild members make quilts for the We Care Program throughout the year and then these quilts are donated to community service agencies, hospitals, and care homes for distribution to members of the community in need of comfort.

PieceMakers Quilt Show – Part 2

We had the Canadian Japanese Block Exchange Groups’ quilts as a guest exhibit at our recent guild quilt show.

Two groups of quilters separated by the Pacific Ocean – 12 in Japan and 12 in Canada – each made 12 identical blocks. Each block represented something distinct about that quilter’s country. Then each quilter designed their own quilt using the blocks provided. These are the finished quilts.

PieceMakers Quilt Show – Part 1

Yesterday was our guild’s bi-annual quilt show. The theme for our show and our show challenge was Quilts From the Heart.

We had a total of 12 guild members who participated in the challenge. (To see a closeup shot of the challenge fabric and the rules of the challenge, please see my January 28th post.

The winner of the challenge is the colourful scrappy heart quilt in the lower left hand corner of this shot.

This is my challenge piece.

All of the guild members who volunteered to work on various aspects of the quilt show were entered into a draw. The lucky winner won this huge basket of quilting “stuff”. …..I was the lucky winner!

This basket was heavy! The basket was jammed with fabric, magazines, patterns, hard cover books, quilt templates, basting spray and thread.
A big thank you to Sharon L. who put this wonderful basket of goodies together!
