This pattern is made by Lorraine Stagness. She lives south of Strathmore and has a shop in her home and online.
Our guild has taken part in her quilt show and will be again this summer.
The above quilt was on display this past summer.
I just spent 3 nights in Edmonton at my nurses union agm. It was get. The 5 speakers that they had were all interesting.
I went as an observer and quite enjoyed everything. Cold in the mornings. minus 10 one morning. Alot of fog on another morning. Great banquet on Wed. evening as well.
Happy Quilting

This picture is of the Ricky Timms convergence pattern. I took a class a few months ago and really enjoyed it. This is just the top and I still haven't gotten it any further at the moment. I'm not sure if I want to make it any bigger or not.
I was a little behind in my birthday block swap so I just finished 2 of the 3 that I needed to do. They are now ready to mail. The last one will be late too if I don't get it done this week early. So that is my next goal.
I finally finished my rag quilt for my dad but haven't washed it yet to rag it.
Happy quilting to everyone

This picture is of a birthday block done for a swap that I'm in. It has already been sent and now I see a problem. Too late.
Don't know why I didn't see it before.
I just finished the quilt I was making for my dad. He has been undergoing treatment for cancer of the esphagus. Now I just have to figure out the best way to sent it. He lives near Ottawa and I am near Calgary. I haven't taken a picture yet. If it is nice out tomorrow maybe I'll hang it on the clothes line and get a picture.
Happy quilting everyone.

quilt show pic
Here is another picture from a quilt show I attended this past summer. Hope you enjoy seeing it.
I'm in the middle of trying to get a rag quilt finished and I have discovered Inklingo and want to do some
english paper piecing using her method and with papers I am quite excited about it. But no time yet.

give away Oct. 1
Hi everyone. Well, there were not very many in this giveaway. Maybe that's because I didn't say what I was giving away.
I'll have to do better next time. There were only 3 comments and I was an answer that I put in so there are only 2 possible winners.
I decided I will send a small gift to each of the commenters. Thank you for your comments and interest.
Carolyn in NC and Just me are the 2 luck winners. I will comment on your blogs to ask for your mailing addresses so I can send my gift. Awaiting your reply.
Happy quilting,
