November 2017 Island Quilters Guild Show and Tell

As it's getting closer to Christmas, we saw more quilted gift items at our show and tell.  Wonderful gifts that we hope the recipients all appreciate!  As well, three members showed competed quilted hangings made with vintage linens that we started at the Kelly Cline workshop in October.
During the meeting, we had demonstrations from 5 members about their favourite tools - I think there will be some additions to gift 'wish list' in the next few weeks!  Thanks to the members who did demos:  Kathy, Nancy, Myra, Myrna and Colleen!
Here are most of the Show and Tell items from our meeting:
