We always enjoy attending.

We had a great showing of our group this year! 

10 of 13 came!!

Thanks to Adeline Johnson for taking our pic! 

It was a celebration for the Canada 150 birthday

Jaynie Himsyl was their guest speaker.

She is a fabulous art quilter 

as well as 

the Saskatchewan rep for the Canadian Quilter Magazine

and 

a member of their guild!

Jaynie has a quilt that is showing in Paducah, Kentucky this year!  

 
She had a variety of works!
This prairie scene is one of my favourites!
Jaynie based this one on a topical map

She also is participating online in a monthly challenge 

There was a contest for best Canada 150 piece  

This was my choice!

Each guild did show and tell.

Lori made this pattern of her motor home in the desert.

Jane brought her stack and whack 

Elenor painted some cute barn quilt boards
