The Piecemakers’ Star

Published by the: DUFFERIN PIECEMAKERS QUILTING GUILD www.dufferinpiecemakers.org

Dufferin Piecemakers Quilting Guild, P.O. Box 325, Orangeville, ON L9W 2Z6

I can’t believe our Guild year has passed so quickly. It has

been a great year thanks to the efforts of the executive and

all the committees. Our Guild would not be nearly as active

without the work from these dedicated members. I know

they have all made my first year as President much easier.

As our year ends we will sit and bask in the summer sun

reflecting on how much we have learned from our fellow

members as well as our speakers and our many workshops.

Next year should be just as active, as our executive has

many exciting ideas coming your way.

If your last name begins with N-Z please bring finger foods

or a dessert to the June meeting. Also remember if your last

name begins with A-M we will be collecting a cash dona-

tion for the Food Bank.

Don’t forget your membership for next year. If you join by

our June meeting your name will be entered in a draw to

win a free membership for the following Guild year…

2011/2012.

I wish you all a happy summer. Enjoy your summer plans to

the fullest.

Creative Fabric Weaving by Julie Higgins The technique of fabric weaving is simple. The pieces go together fast.

Any beginner with a zigzag machine can be successful. The book

includes instruction for fabric weaving and 8 unique projects to

stitch, including a purse, a vest, pillows, wall hangings and a one-of-

a-kind quilt.

Layer Cake, Jelly Roll and Charm Quilts

by Pam & Nicky Lintott Discover quick and clever designs that are a world away from simple

strip quilts or scrap charm quilts. Created from one layer cake, jelly

roll or charm pack, each quilt offers ingenious ideas to use pre-cut

fabric collections with little or no waste.

The Rose of Sharon Block Book by Sharon Pederson This books presents the winning entries from the EQ6 Rose of Sharon

Community Projects Block

I am still on a high from the donation that we made to the Japan relief program.

If you would like to see some great photos (I think some of our quilts are fea-

tured .. Japanese fabric), check out Patti Carey‟s blog site

www.pattispatchwork.com The count for quilts is now over 1500!

And now it is on to the next projects as we rebuild our inventory to give to our local community.

There will not be a work bee before our next guild meeting on June 20th but there will be items avail-

able to pick up at the meeting so you can do some stitching over the summer. Also, we plan to be at

Cobwebs and Caviar on June 28 for the final work bee before our summer break. We will be quilting

on the mid-arm and sewing and cutting other items.

Again a big thank you to Jackie & A J at Cobwebs for their continued generous donations.

In case you were interested, here is a breakdown of our donations this past quilt year:

June 2010 to June 2011

Quilts (all sizes) donated…….105

Placemats……………………… 70 +

Cash for Food Banks………… $660 + June 2011 donations

Miscellaneous gifts………….. 5

Large donation of stocking stuffers for 2 youth organizations.

At the June meeting, it has been a tradition that one half of the alphabet provide our treats, and the

other half provide for the food bank. We will be collecting cash donations for the Orangeville Food

Bank at our June meeting. Hope you can help.

Thank you again to all members for your dedication to Community Projects.

Your community projects committee: Fern Pugh, Jan Dickson, Mary Lynne Simpson, Marilyn Copeland, and Marie Tupling

Note from the Editor

This is my last newsletter as your editor. It has been my pleasure for the last four

years to be able to publish the Piecemakers’ Star. It didn’t begin as a pleasure but as a

daunting challenge. It began with a program I had never used, no previous computer

copy of the newsletter and a panic call to my son only weeks before I was to have the first

issue published. He was very calm and gave me this advice: “ Go to every item in the menu bar, click

on it and see what it does. One of them will do what you want it to.” I discovered that when all else

fails, “HELP” is the button to click or Publisher for Dummies works wonders too :)

Now, as I hand over the reigns to Penny Squirrell, I hand over a computer with all previous

issues on file. I am also handing it to a person familiar with the program and with some computer

knowledge so I know it will be in good hands. I have also offered to be on hand for her first copy.

As many of you already know, we have our house on the market. We are hoping to stay in the

area but it will depend on what happens if and when we do sell. It is a combination of selling the

house and the desire to do more travelling that has brought me to the decision to leave the position

of editor. I have to give a high five to my team, to Ida who chased down the advertisers and stood

by with encouragement and praise and to Penny who came on board last September. As you will

find, Penny, the actual doing of the newsletter is a one woman operation but it eases the mind to

have someone standing with you, and the pats on the back don’t hurt either.

I want to wish Penny and her team—Ida and Tricia (the new person on the block) all the best

and I look forward to sitting back and reading my issue every month. Have a great summer!

Tips and Hints From Windsor Quilters’ Guild Newsletter of Nov. 2008

-Place completed quilt tops with their backing fabric, binding and batting on a rounded hanger to keep everything together and un-wrinkled until time to finish the quilt. -Use a lint roller to clean your cutting board. (from www.quiltbug.com)

-Want to use a large cone of thread on your machine and the spindle is too small? Try placing an empty pen over the pin to extend the height and it will stand vertically. (from the Pieces and Patches Quilters’ Guild)

you‟re in my block of friends!**

Trip to Montana or Walmart Wing It Trip Part 2, “The Trip Home”

Day 12: If you remember, we had loaded the camper, put it in 4 wheel drive to get through the 6” of

snow, and so began the home trek. We had bad weather (snow flurries) off and on until dinner time. We

made the push and stopped at Walmart in Moose Jaw, Sask. It was only 3C in the camper when we

stopped. Thank goodness for propane heat! Day 13: -2C but sunny. Stopped at Timmies on the

way out across from the big moose and the plane. We reached the Manitoba border at lunch time. Even rest areas are

closed, still too much snow in them but we found one with space to park and make lunch. Turned the heat on. We called

ahead to the Winnipeg KOA campground only to be told “We are having a little water issue. We‟ll

be here, but the campground is under 2‟ of water!” To which I responded “Well then, I guess we

won‟t be stopping, sorry!” The Red River still hasn‟t crested. We saw the campground when we

drove by, so much water! Hey, a Flying J (truck stop)! Thought we‟d stop, pick up a new Flying J

locations flyer and use the dump site. Had dinner in the restaurant, no flyers and dump not yet

in use, no surprise! We decided to push to Kenora, just a few hours more. It was very late when

we arrived, we were tired, we cut off person in “roundabout” who then chased us around town „til

we stopped at garage so I could ask for directions to Walmart. Guess he thought I was reporting him because he contin-

ued on. We got to Walmart , they said OK to overnight parking but the town has “by-law” (the young lady did the finger

sign for quotes) that says no overnight camping. We thought we‟d grab a couple of hours and move on but parking right

under the “No Overnight Parking” sign just didn‟t work. The local campground was closed, Comfort Inn open, OUCH! An-

other shower, expensive shower! Day 14: -3C but sunny. Stopped in Ignace, ON for fuel and a rest stop. Found a flyer

about geocaching at info center (open only because town offices are in the building). It listed coordinates for a few

caches in Ignace so I found one because it was close by. I drove from Ignace to Upsala, woo

hoo! +5C, another woo hoo, above 0! Stopped at KOA Thunder Bay, just open, not fully set up,

charged flat fee, had water at building, electric on site and a dump site that works, yipee! Just

in time, we were starting to get splash back! Day 15: Should be last day on the road but a big

weather system is moving in. Stopped in Nipigon for a break and decided to take Northern route

(Hwy 11), through Hearst, Longlac to avoid big hills of Hwy 17 and maybe miss the storm. We had

lunch in Hearst, roads full of ruts caused by the big trucks, one of which spit a rock which

dinged the windshield. Made it to New Liskeard when the snow started. We decided to have dinner at Wendy‟s and when

we came out it was miserable. We opted to stay at Walmart, do some Easter shopping, bed early and up really early. Day

16: -3C outside, +3C inside and still dark! We were supposed to be home, picking up the dog from the kennel. I had to call

and say we‟d be there in the afternoon. The roads were not good when we started out, a mini van and a big transport

truck were both on their sides in the ditch. A little further on another truck had just gone off the road and the police

were in attendance. We had made the right decision to stay over. We ended our adventure without any more incidents,

unpacked, had a little lunch and picked up a very excited dog.

What did we learn from this trip?

1. Find out how far you have to go BEFORE you say yes we can do that. Kalispell Montana is very, very far away!

2. Winter camping can be done in a truck camper but who wants to! Cross that off the bucket list! We were toasty

warm once the heat was turned on but when it was off that toilet seat was an adventure in itself!

3. If you go that early in the year, you should bring winter boots, hats, gloves, etc. I had the coat, hat, glove, but … ac-

cording to my husband who did not bring hat, gloves, or boots, we weren‟t going to need them. We were going to be West

where it is warmer! Ha!

4. Our camper is a much safer unit with the new Stable Lift system, making the trip totally worthwhile.

Jeanne

PS. Despite the poor weather we had on our trip, we have since discovered how lucky we were to have gone when we did.

The weather at times, has been much worse out West since our return, the rivers have gotten higher, there was a huge

blizzard in Winnipeg a short time after we got back. Had we gone even a week later, we would have had to contend with

far worse weather and conditions. I guess someone was watching over us.
