Quilt Donation to the Saskatoon Cancer Center

Several months ago, Patti donated a lovely FQ stack of fabric that she won. As a guild we decided to make blocks and turn them into quilts for charity. You might remember that from this post in June. The quilts have been donated to the Saskatoon Cancer Center.

At the Sewcial we were finally able to get all three completed quilts together with enough hands to hold them up! Beautiful Blackstrap Lake was our backdrop. We hope these quilts find their way to the arms of people who could really use a warm hug.

Great work everyone – and thanks again, Patti!

 

First Annual Year-End Sewcial

On December 1st we had a little year end event with guild members. It was a lovely opportunity to spend the day together doing what we do best, sewing and talking.

Thanks to everyone who came! We can’t wait to organize more fun events in 2014.

We had a fabulous time!  It’s astonishing how fast time flies when you’re blowing breakers and asking for sashing advice…

Here’s to a wonderful 2013 – and hoping for an even better 2014!
