Quinte Quilt Guild Trunk Show Number 31

Here is how this day went up at 6, first thing get local quilts to do a display at the London Art Council offices, put up the quilts, then load up the car for the trip to Belleville to do the trunk show. Dinner with two lovely ladies from the guild then off to the meeting. I really enjoyed the meeting with lots of interest in the quilts and what this exhibit is about. It is of course coming to view the wonderful works of art but in so many ways  it is so much more. The classes are unique with a chance for quilters to learn new skills and something about another culture. The lecture is being given by a author of the subject of fabrics from Africa so people will be able to view the quilts with that in mind. Quilters from some of the countries, male quilters from Nigeria, art display from South Africa. Greeters from different areas of Africa that have settled in London dressed in traditional attire. Saturday evening Gala with dinner, music, awards and fashion and the bonus of spending a evening with quilters from different parts of the world. I did finish the day arriving home at 1 in the morning to be up at 6 to start again working on all the things that did doing to make sure most of the bases are covered.
