President's Message                                                                                                                                            Katherine Hunter
Another quilt year has come to an end and it has been a success.   Meetings well attended, workshops enjoyed, numerous comfort quilts donated and distributed to the agencies we support and a  fabulous quilt show after 8 long years away from the 'stage'.  And what a great show it was, with so many compliments.  Our visitors made special mention of the enjoyment shown by the volunteers as they went about their various duties.

In September we will begin to collect items for the annual Loonie Auction, our December fundraiser for the Burlington Foodbank and the Compassion Society of Halton.  We will also collect orphan blocks which will be made into quilts for residents of Indwell, an organization that creates affordable housing communities to support people seeking health, wellness and belonging.  A member of another quilting group takes the orphan blocks and turns them into lovely quilts with the addition of some extra donated fabrics.  When I redid my quilt room, I unearthed a plethora of blocks that had been made to try a pattern or experiment with colour, leftover blocks from other completed projects, and even a few that were abandoned mid-project.  All were different sizes and types.  All my orphan blocks were gratefully received and they have now been collaged
into lovely quilts.  

Have a wonderful summer.  Please take note that Sew Days will continue throughout the summer and that there are two "Christmas in the summer” workshops scheduled.  Happy crafting, take care and stay safe.                                              Katherine
