SEPTEMBER MEETING HIGHLIGHTS

We had a great start to the 2019-2020 season, with a large turn-out of members.  It was great to see everyone after the summer!

Our guest this month was quilter Ihor Gawdan.
He shared his wonderful art quilts, and talked about his development as a quilter.His first quilt was made following a trip to Africa with his family A few years later, he and his wife visited Australia, and this quilt was made with many aboriginal designed fabrics. His latest quilt is full of colour and symbols…… Box Challenge 2019
At our June meeting, our out-going President challenged us to make a quilted project using the colours found in our chosen box.  We selected our box from a large brown envelope, and headed home to work. Congratulations to all our participants!

Community Quilts
There were many quilts finished over the summer months.  Several members helped with reorganizing the stash, and matching quilt tops to backings to prepare for quilting during the summer months.Postcards
