Cops For Cancer pictures

A note from Carole Hando
Here are a couple of photos that were taken today when I passed all the quilts to Cheryle from Cancer Agency, 53 quilts if I counted correctly.  The one on the right is Beckie Stewart , the other one is Beth Laugesen..  The Ride is September 21 – 25 shorter than in the past but at least it is ago!!  

 

September Virtual Meeting and future News

Hello Fellow Quilters
Well we did it, with an amazing team in place FVQG had it’s first annual VIRTUAL MEETING!

All in all it was a great success. A BIG thank you to everyone behind the scenes spending countless hours to make it look as good as it did.

This looks like it is the way of the forseeable future for us to be able to see each other.

With that in mind the Program/Workshop team is working diligently to bring in artists from all over the world. Stayed tuned for exciting new ventures coming our way and of course remember to sign up for virtual classes as per newsletter instructions.

Keep those creative juices flowing by making Preemies and all those UFO’s that have been sitting in the back of your closet. Remember to send all your photos to me  for the Show and Tell for October.

Nicholas Turcan who is the creator of www.mysteryquilt.com will be October’s Presenter.

Our library has taken on the very LARGE task of cataloging all of our books for a future reservation platform, in the near future. Thank you Ladies!
