Virtual Meeting - August 10

I have really missed going to quilt shows, this spring and summer. I came across this the other day. Studio Art Quilt Associates were planning to meet for the first time in Canada. Since it was to be in Toronto, in March, the meeting was cancelled. However,  a show titled Colour with a "U", is currently on exhibit at Homer Watson House in Kitchener and it is art quilts made by the members,

You can watch the show on video, through the Homer Watson website:

Scroll to the bottom of the page,  to find the link to the video.

The video is an hour long, so get comfortable and enjoy.

Apparently Quilts in their Natural Habitat appealed to many of you this week, because I have 28 pictures for you.

First, Barb Sharp-Bond made this quilt and bag for Victoria's Quilts. It is called White Mountain, and was quilted by Krista.

Barb made this second quilt, with religious blocks, for a friend.

Carol McFee has Midnight Gardens hanging in her family room.

Carol has Ode to Yoko Saito in her bedroom. (You will have to try your head to read the lovely label.)

Christine Welsh is getting some Christmas gifts finished, five months ahead of time.

Jan Pound shows us her daughter-in-law snuggled under the quilt Jan made her.

Jan's grandchildren, Spencer and Olivia enjoy her tumbling blocks quilt.

Joy made the Mexican Pots Wall Quilt at the Pickle Dish.

Joy made the Ginko Wall Quilt at a class in Mesa, Arizona.

Judith Pach made a Dr. Who quilt for her daughter-in-law.

She made a Christmas quilt for herself, featuring cardinals, her favourite bird.

Kate is participating in a charity walk for Bruce House, and I am making Hand Sanitizer Pouches to give as gifts to my sponsors.

Though I have a hard time believing it, not everyone is a cat lover. So here is another pouch, in the "wild" with moose playing in the water.

Marilyn has changed her spring wall quilts for summer, and she has gone to the beach.

Both this quilt, and the one below are Marilyn's own designs.

Nancy has this lovely McKenna Ryan quilt, Home Tweet Home, in her laundry room. It was appliqued and quilted by Nancy.

She has these lovely tulips in her bathroom. They were appliqued by Nancy and quilted by Krista.

Nicole tried a couple of patterns from a modern quilt book she borrowed from our library.

Pat Nyenhuis is still trying to use up scraps. This one will be used a Christmas gift.

This one is a block of the month from a couple of years ago.

Susan Noad  made these birds in 2018.

She made this quilt in 2017.

Okay, I think I have them all here. Our next "meeting" is Aug. 24. Keep stitching, friends.
