At our meeting last Monday, we had some spectacular treasures for Sew’N’Tell! 🧵 First off we had Nina share her adorable “Peggy Langford Hexie Method” footstool cover. Then we had Marjorie show off her jaw-dropping Lap Quilt, which we machine-pieced by her ⭐️ Then Peggy showed us her lovely Tamarack Jacket she’d been working on the last few months. The coat itself was constructed by blocks her granddaughter sewed previously - how sweet 💜 And then Peggy showcased her INCREDIBLE hand-pieced Hexie Quilt. We took a close-up of the back so that you could see the tedious stitching that went into each hexagon. Magnificent! And Janice showcased this whimsical Block of the Month pattern she worked away on. How fun are some of these blocks! ☀️ And lastly Katie shared her self-drafted wavy vest with free-motion embroidery 🪡 We meet the first Monday of the month, times vary! Check out our website for the full schedule. Our next meeting is on Monday, November 2 at 1PM 🕐

THANK YOU! We were able to raise $1720.00 in support of Christmas Daddies this year through the Silent Auction at the Quilt Show. 13 pieces were included in the Auction.
A huge thank you to not only the folks behind the quilts, but to the lucky winners of each piece! ⭐️
We were able to grab a few photos of some of the lucky winners (even with some of the artists) before they took their new treasures home 🏠
BEST IN SHOW & VIEWER’S CHOICE 🥇
“campignons du monde - Mushrooms of the World” by Judy Cooper 🍄
This jaw-dropping hand-pieced, hand appliquéd, embroidered, beaded, hand-dyed wool, linen, flannel, thrifted clothing piece was a show stopper indeed, bringing home first place in both categories this weekend.
Judy’s quilt will also have the opportunity to be showcased in the Canadian Quilter’s Association (CQA) National Show next June!
The most sincere & heartfelt congratulations goes to Judy & all our other incredible artists this weekend.
