APRIL 2019        Sandy Lindal of the Scrappy Gal Quilt Co. finds that quilting allows her to be “creative and fill my need to be productive at the same time.”  She enjoys working with quilters to turn their unfinished tops into treasures to love and cherish for years to come.   Learn more about Sandy’s work at https://scrappygalquiltco.wordpress.com.

​FEBRUARY 2019     Elsie Panko, a member of the Halton Quilters Guild for 10 years, presented a trunk show of her quilts.  ​Her collection featured an extensive variety of colourful quilts featuring different styles and techniques.  






​

NOVEMBER 2018       Annette Guenther, a member of the Halton Quilters Guild for 12 years, presented a trunk show of her quilts.  Since she began quilting 13 years ago, Annette has never looked back!  She tries all types of patterns and different sewing accessories.  Annette likes to improvise in her own way if she does not agree with a pattern.  Retired now, Annette has more time to explore many other different ways to express herself through quilting and creating.



October 2018     Kathy K. Wylie's trunk show, "The Art of Applique", showed her development as an artist while illustrating how her quilts reflect her personal journey of faith.  She shared her knowledge of skills and techniques that will help others develop as quilters.  Learn more about Kathy’s work at www.kathykwylie.com.
