Teaching in Toronto



I got back yesterday from a great teaching time at the Creative Festival in Toronto. I taught Shattered Angles and my Simple Stained Glass quilt. I was there teaching for Country Concessions and Darlene put my names in lights! this is about as close to a marquee on Broadway as I'll ever get!

Mother and daughter team of Cynthia and Linda had fun in my class, Linda chose to work in greens and came back to see me the following day, having bought another 20 or so green fat quarters. I think she's planning on a king size quilt! Hurrah!



Sylvia chose to work in bright crayon colours and I know her quilt is going to sparkle!


Many thanks to everyone who made my visit such fun!

I also ran into Heather McArthur with Quilters Connection magazine (sorry I don't have a picture). Heather has started Canada's first magazine devoted to quilting and I'm thrilled for her. Visit her website at:
