Real Deal

Today  I visited the quilting bee in the Mill. It was a delightful experience to observe Salome and several of her friends quilting the St. Jacobs Quilt Block Challenge Quilt for 2015. The tiny stitches pulled to perfection made such an impact on the fabric. The quilt had been rolled several times..only the centre portion was left to complete. Salome was quilting the outline of several maple leaves on the border.....which should really make a statement. Naturally the ladies are interested in knowing how high the auctioneer can raise the bid at the annual Mennonite Relief Sale held Saturday, May 30th. This quilt will be hung at the Schoolhouse Theatre the week of the Quilt Festival.
