April 25, 2020 – Broken Daisy Workshop by Maureen Wood – Cancelled

In accordance with other cancellations or postponements resulting from the threat of COVID-19, the Executive of VQG and the Programmes and Workshop Committee members have decided that our wisest and safest course of action is:

1. We are cancelling the April 2nd Guild meeting.

2. The Sleep-in-your-own-bed retreat will not happen on the weekend of March 27-29.

3. Studio 13 will not be open on the 1st or 3rd Thursdays until further notice.

4. The workshop with Maureen Wood is also being postponed.

We will make a decision about the May 7th Guild meeting at a later date. Same for the June 4th AGM and Guild meeting. Please check the VQG website for additional information. Thank you.

Maureen Wood has been quilting since 2004 and has developed a passion for foundation paper piecing. She has made well over 100 quilts using the foundation paper piecing techniques of Judy Niemeyer and of Jacqueline de Jonge, and has taught many classes focusing on the patterns of both of these amazing quilt designers.

Maureen has been a Quiltworx Certified Instructor since 2009 and a BeColourful Authorized Teacher since 2018. She enjoys teaching the techniques of both of these designers and assisting other quilters to develop the skills and confidence to successfully complete any of the Judy Niemeyer or Jacqueline de Jonge patterns that they choose to work on.

In this one-day workshop she will teach us her technique for foundation paper pieced patterns. We will make the Broken Daisy placemat. The workshop fee includes patterns for four placemats. The workshop will take place at St. Faith’s Anglican Church at 57th and Cypress (7284 Cypress) from 9:30-4:00. The fee which includes the pattern is $65.
