Visiting the Quilter’s Guild of Renfrew and Area Quilt Show today and the talent on display is incredible! Many stunning quilts, beautiful colours, and amazing craftsmanship. If you’re anywhere nearby, it’s definitely worth a visit.

We look forward to gathering one last time before our summer break and celebrating another wonderful quilting season together.

Our final Guild meeting of the season is coming up - and it's happening one week earlier than our usual meeting date. Be sure to mark your calendars so you don't miss it!

After the excitement and hard work that went into our Quilt Show, we've decided to cancel our June Sewcial Night and give everyone a well-deserved chance to rest and recharge.

Reminder that the May ADQG Meeting is this Wednesday!

Please note that this month’s meeting will be our Annual General Meeting (AGM), so there will be no guest speaker. We will also be going over preparations for the Quilt Show, so we encourage members to attend.

While we normally encourage visitors to join us, this meeting is intended primarily for guild members, as visitors will not be able to participate in the AGM proceedings.

What a night! It was so great to see members and guests in person again! The weather couldn’t have been more perfect to welcome us back to in-person meetings. And of course, being back in person means shopping is back too - we always love having Happy Wife Quilting as our Shop of the Month!

Our guest speaker, Sherida Giddings (Seams Pieceful), had us saying ‘wow’ all night with her trunk show! She shared an incredible collection of stunning quilts, each one highlighting her remarkable skill and creativity.

Hearing the stories behind her work and seeing her techniques up close was so inspiring. We wouldn’t be surprised if a few members are already thinking about trying foundation piecing themselves!

Thank you again, Sherida, for such an memorable presentation. We loved every minute!

We’re excited to be back to in-person meetings - and our April ADQG Meeting is tonight! 🎉

Join us this evening for a great program featuring our speaker, Sherida Giddings, a certified Quiltworx instructor. You won’t want to miss it!
