Being Neighbourly

 During our May meeting a parade of quilts for the 12 Neighbours Tiny Homes project were shown. Many of these were from a sister guild in Fredericton. It is so wonderful that lots of quilters have been making quilts and that other community groups have also been helping support the efforts. As usual seeing so much beautiful work all in one spot was inspiring. Some of my pictures were a quite blurry and not included, but here are many of the quilts shown. Following that display is our member show and tell. Enjoy.






























Kathy H made a bench pillow with an appliqued gnome camping scene.


Susan A has been busy. Someone gave her a table topper which she says she "quilted to death".



Susan picked up an Anne of Green Gables panel at a yard sale. Beautiful. She did some couching with white yarn,


While thinking of Ukraine, Susan made a pixelated sunflower.


And Susan has finished her Arkansas Crosswords that she was working on at retreat.


Heather used a Darcy Hunter pattern to make birch trees.

Debby H made a baby quilt which includes fabric from her sisters.


Andrea has finished her row by row.

Andrea says this is one of the 3 yard quilt patterns.


We thought these might be curling stones but they are macarons. 


Thesee are leftover blocks from Andrea's grandmother. Very delicate colours.


This piece has fabric from Andrea's mom.


Andrea made this wall hanging for her child who is a plant mom.


Andrea and Ron put their fabric together to make this for their couch. And also matching cushion covers.



For these 2 quilts Andrea used fat quarter scraps. She paired the brightest fabrics with black and the others with white.



Here Andrea has a star in a star in a star. . .


Linda has a wall hanging and a table topper.



Gisele has made a binding tool kit. It has everything you need.
