Flying Needles Wind-Up (28)

I always love a good windup party the food, the friends and the inspiration is always the draw. This year was no different with my Flying Needles Quilt Guild.

With all of our challenges and pin cushions galore it was so hard to choose my favourites 🙂

Thanks to all who contributed to this fun day and making something delicious for us to snack on.

Heritage Park Festival of Quilts (18)

Sunday last was a day filled with dreary weather but adorable buildings in our local historic Heritage Park bathed in light rain, people absorbing all of the incredible quilt designs, colours and quilting that was around them. The Guild tent was full of Calgary and area guilds showing off all of their goodies through out the year that have been taught, shared, loved, cherished, and best of all…finished 🙂

This is my Millarville Guild, thanks Janet for posing 🙂

While Janet was working the booth, she was squaring up these little beauties…

June 12 is our wind-up party and we have an apron challenge that will indeed be judged that day, Yikes, I’m so glad mine is done these look like good candidates!

All 500+ quilts are supplied from Calgary and surrounding areas, the volunteers at Heritage Park lay, hang, display, cover, and many more positions of showing off our quilts for everyone to see in the most historic of buildings on the town grounds at Heritage Park.


One thing Calgary, Alberta, CANADA is famous for besides the Calgary Stampede is their Udderly Art around the city…yes you are reading this right udderly…

So the Quilters cannot be left out, right?

what do you all think?

Until next time, have a happy and creative weekend!!
