Library Quilting


Heritage Quilt being created at the Library

Often the Jim and Mary Kearl Library hosts quilt shows and quilt displays.
Whenever they plan these, they borrow the Chinook Arch Regional Library System Quilt. 

As Canada is celebrating its 150th birthday, the library has decided to create its own quilt. 
They are hoping 25 quilters might support them by contributing a quilt block, 12" x 12", weaving in their own personal style, heritage, culture.

DETAILS:



Here are some quilts from around the world done with blocks contributed by different quilters.  Have fun thinking of something wonderful :)   
If you are interested in participating call Donna :)
