​PROGRAMS 2022-2023
 
October 6, 2022 – Sharon Fisher, Gardening Mum Quilts - Physical
Focus on wool applique and stitch
 
Sharon combines her love of texture and colour with traditional, primitive and whimsical themes.
She uses embellishments to enrich basic designs, therefore creating a niche for herself as a
teacher sharing her skills and passions with others. Sharon considers herself a life long learner,
enhancing her skills and knowledge through various forms.
 
November 3, 2022 –Breanna Gaudaur, Rose & Ivy Quilts - Physical
A Modern Trunk Show
 
Enjoy a fresh look at quilting through the eyes of a passionate 26-year-old.  Be inspired by a multitude of exciting new patterns and colour ideas.
 
December 1, 2022 – To be determined
 
January 5, 2023 – Joanna Dermenjian - Virtual
Canada’s Forgotten Wartime Quilts
 
Did you know that Canadian quilters made over 400,000 quilts in World War 2 to families in Europe? The story of the quilters and these quilts are at risk of being lost to history. However, Joanna Dermenjian of Suture and Selvedge is an independent researcher who is working towards rediscovering the truth behind the Canadian women. Joanna will be talking about her research and the important contribution these women had to world history.
 
February 3, 2023 – Beth Helfter, EvaPaige Quilt Designs - Virtual
Oompah Accordian Sewn HSTs
 
Beth’s penchant for scraps and her need to use as many fabrics as possible in her quilts led her to develop the Accordion Sewn HSTs™ method of creating half square triangles that don't have a match and yet waste no fabric. Delving into the method further, she discovered "ordering" the accordions could lead to the creation of whole blocks and quilts from a single accordion.
 
March 3, 2023 –  Corey Ralph, Sew Manly Quilting


Corey (B.Bus, E.Ed, MBA, RMT) found quilting in the fall of 2014 when he needed an outlet for his creative side.  He was inspired after seeing his mother completed/built a pinwheel quilt with love and passion some years earlier.
 
April 6, 2023 – Rose Parr  - Physical
 
Healthy Quilting
 
Rose Parr can relate and wants to be a pain-free quilter for as long as she possibly can. Her studies of wellness and ergonomics are integrated into her daily studio practice, and she shows us how to do it, too. What inspires you to create?
 
May 4, 2023 – Millie Cumming, Fibre Artist - Physical
Making your own quilts more personal
 
Millie made her first attempt at textile art during late nights looking after her newborn son.
Beginning with an applique course, Millie has gone on to acclaim in the world of Art Quilts. Her textiles are not of traditional patterns, but creative interpretations of subjects close to her heart. Delicacy and a demanding perfection mark her work, tinged with a sweet nostalgia for nature, memories and cottage life.
