Outreach Day 2019 - Working together to make some quilts which will give "comfort" to others in our community. This year's event featured the first annual Iron Quilters Challenge. See HQG Challenges for more photos.
Photos taken at the meetings from December 2017, April 2018 and October 2018.
2022 - 2023 President's Challenge
The challenge was to create a quilted piece with the theme of “Sapphire” in honour of our guild’s 45th anniversary. There were several unique entries, ranging from quilts to art pieces, each reflecting an original interpretation of the challenge. The winning entry from Katherine Hunter was an accordion display illustrating a variety of quilt blocks, all in beautiful shades of blue.

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.
(Apologies as seem unable to make it into a slide show) MARCH 2019 Gunnel Hag of Trees Textile Designers and Printers creates the visual textures in her work "by screen printing, manipulating and painting coloured pigments on the fabric surface as well as quilting by hand and machine.” Learn more about Gunnel’s work at http://gunnelhag.blogspot.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. |
