One Year and Counting

About Us:  

This show is the cumulative efforts of the Huron-Perth Quilter's Guild and the Stonetowne Quilter's Guild of St. Mary's, Ontario.  Presented every other year, over 120 members come together to share their work with fellow quilters, fiber artists and the general public.  Our show, scheduled for April 24-26, 2014 at the Pyramid Center in the town of St. Mary's, Ontario, will be our 11th show and is already being eagerly anticipated.  On view, are examples of quilting in the Traditional & Contemporary categories, as well as, garments and wall hangings. Over the next year, I will be sharing  pieces with you from our past shows.  I hope that you can join us in 2014.  At $6.00 for an entrance ticket, it is truly a bargain!

All quilting techniques are covered by the examples in our shows including:  Traditional piecing, paper piecing, hand applique, machine applique and fusible applique.  Their are many Art pieces too.
