President's Message                                                                                                                                     Katherine Hunter
The wind is howling outside and the temperature is dropping as we prepare to say goodbye to 2025 and welcome a New Year filled with hope and gratitude.  The Loonie Auction raised $2400 to be split between the Burlington Food Bank and Compassion Society of Halton.  Well done, Halton Quilters Guild members!  An amazing number of blankets and quilts were also donated to the Compassion Society to help keep people warm this winter. 
 
I would like to take this time to express my gratitude and appreciation to the members who donated items for the auction, the team who pulled it all together, and everyone who came out to support this fundraiser.  I would also like to thank several business donors who jumped in and donated to this effort:  Windy Hill Tree Farm, Wildher Things, Northcott Silk Company, Who Gives a Crap, Sew Tec Sewing Machine Repairs and Service, Honeybee Quilt Studio, Compass Quilt Company, Crazy Loon Quilting, and Nova Sewing.
 
January's meeting will feature a video presentation of the popular quilt known by several names: Hanging Gardens, Chandelier, Beads - with a workshop following in February.  Join the WIP challenge, look for the new Quilt Along, sign up for upcoming workshops, grab a coffee and a treat and settle in to visit with friends.  There will be neonatal blanket and Halton Hearts kits available as well as Comfort quilts that need assembly and binding.  If you are working on the Mini Quilt Wall-hanging, please pick up the next two block instructions. 
 
Plans for the Quilt Show slated for our 50th year (2027) will be well underway and more news will be forthcoming at our monthly meetings.  It is never to early to toss your hat in the ring and sign up for one of the many important jobs necessary to make the Quilt Show a success.
 
Show 'n Share is a wonderful opportunity to showcase what you have been working on and members enjoy seeing what has inspired your creativity.  Please bring your quilts, clothing, bags, dolls, and toys to share at the meeting.
 
Happy New Year!!  Take care and stay safe.    Katherine
