Virtual Meeting - May31, 2021

 Welcome back! We have a wonderful Show and Tell, today. The UFO piles must really be going down. In person shopping might soon be required for some of you and we are hoping that will soon become normal, again.

Barb Karim has our first quilt. This is so simple, but so wonderful.

Beth Marshall received this quilt from her paternal grandmother. It was the raffle quilt for her grandmother's Women's Institute group, and Grandma won the raffle!

It is on a Vilas bed that Beth also received from her grandparents. 

Carol McFee started this quilt in 1994, while watching the Winter Olympics from Lillehammer.

She hand quilted it, finishing it this year. I love what she called it!

Dianne Watchorn says she is keeping this quilt for herself. The pattern is "Bundle of Ten".

Dianne made this quilt for the grandson of a friend.

Doreen took inspiration from this picture her son took at Dead Horse State Park in Utah.

She turned it into a wall hanging.

Doreen made this wall hanging for a granddaughter who loves cats. She says she picked up the pattern from the give away table.

Jan Pound picked up the fabric and pattern for this wall hanging in Las Vegas in 2010.

She says she learned couching and using leather in applique making this. It was quilted by Krista.

Johanne knit this Powder Wrap Shawl in Maker's Savvy May Knit Along. It looks so cozy.

Joy asked her great nephew what colours he would like for a baby quilt. He replied that he wanted "mostly pink, with baby animals including a wolf". Awfully specific! The baby's last name will be Wolfe. Joy is enjoying doing some hand applique, outside on nice days.

Judy Case made this quilt from her scraps using Robert Kaufman's "Neighbourhood" pattern.

I made this shawl from some lovely yarn I received for Christmas from someone who knows what I like.  The pattern is called "Through the Witch's Garden". I used every bit of yarn I had to finish it.

Marilyn send this bright door.

The City has crystals on the steeples as lights.

Marion Roussie completed her version of "Over the River and Through the Woods". 

Marion changed the quote on the centre panel to something more appropriate to her daughter's family and this year.

MaryAnn says she bought the panel and coordinating fabric from Quilting Quarters, when it was still next to Your Independent in Almonte (she thinks is was about 12 years ago). She has decided it is time to finish it.

Nancy Wright's husband brought these fabric's back from a golfing trip in the Carolinas. I was a jelly roll, when jelly rolls were just a new "invention" It was in her favourite colours and it was doggy prints.

She pieced the back, and it was quilted by Krista.

Teddy, her dog, seems to have claimed it.

Pat Nyenhuis sent a picture of her half log cabin quilt she started at a workshop at Poole Creek a few years ago.

Pat finished a wheel chair quilt, that she calls Joseph's Coat of Many Colours. The belt is attached to loops and can be used to keep the quilt from falling off. 

In this picture, you can see how the belt is attached. The belt comes off so the quilt can be washed.

This was an excellent UFO. Thanks to everyone who sent pictures. Remember, if you want to see a picture closer, you can click on it to see a larger version.

Next Show and Tell is June 14.
