Quilt Reflections 2014 - Spirit of the Prairies

I was so pleased to read the Quilt Manitoba update this week written by my friend Melissa Marginet. The local Manitoba Prairie Quilters have their biennial show coming up in a few weeks and they always pull off a spectacular display of quilts. If you are going to be in the province that weekend then check out Quilt Reflections 2014 - Spirit of the Prairies.

 

Melissa stumbled across a great video recently from the Remarkable Symposium of Quilts 2011 in New Zealand. I'd never seen it before and the exciting part is that there was a Canadian Content exhibition on display that year by members of the Fibre Art Network. My piece was in that show along with a fine show of talent by over 30 Western Canadian Fibre artists.

Here are a few ways you can see this great Canadian showcase of talent:

You can check out Bonnie's video on YouTube at http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=tzw0jbpdnxY

Or you can go to the Fibre Art Network website and click on Canadian Content. It's one of 16 exhibitions they have displayed on the website, so grab a cup of tea and peruse some wonderful fibre art.
