Off to a Great Start!

We are off to an exciting start to our year - already two successful meetings, a workshop and a workday under our belt! We have some new members (welcome!) and there is lots of enthusiasm in our group. Quilting is alive and well!
We all share a love of sewing/quilting and we each take away something different from our projects, whether they be by hand or machine... I couldn't resist sharing this "poster" I saw on Facebook. Health benefits sounds good to me!!

Our November newsletter will be out in another few weeks so watch for it in your inbox/mailbox.


Coming Up.... the Embroiderers' Guild of Fredericton is holding a sale of new and gently used items tonight (Monday Oct. 28) at the Stepping Stone Centre, 15 Saunders St. Included will be even weave fabric, embroidery threads, patterns, books, kits, hoops, beads, etc. plus some general sewing supplies. The sale will be held from 6-8pm. All are welcome!



The Fredericton Guild of Fibre Artists and the Embroiderers' Guild of Fredericton are joining forces to present an exhibition of their work at Government House, 51 Woodstock Road, from Nov. 8 to Jan. 8. Hours are 10-4 Monday through Friday. Several of our own members belong to these talented groups and this show promises to be an amazing display of creative skills and talents. You won't want to miss a visit to Government House third floor gallery to see this show.











For those of you who like working with selvages, here's an idea for you... a new dress!!  Perhaps with your Christmas fabric selvages??!!  :)


For Sale: Pfaff Ambition 1.0 machine. Two years old but used VERY little - no more than ten hours at most. In perfect condition. Asking $800.00. Contact Sue at 457-2333.

One of our members has a new Pfaff Power Quilter 16 (sit down mid arm machine) and is looking to confer with others who have the same. If you own one, or know of someone in Fredericton who does, please leave a comment below.
