The “Maidstone Quilting Squares” Quilt Guild from Maidstone, Saskatchewan, Canada are making my originally designed “Cinnamon-teen Chocolate Figs & Roses” quilt as a mystery quilt instead of a block of the month quilt. They just started so sit back and watch the photos as they make them each month.

“The Good Time Quilters of Blind Bay,” Sorrento, British Columbia, Canada are also making my originally designed “Cinnamon-teen Chocolate Figs & Roses” quilt. How fun is that?!! Two Canadian quilt groups making the same exact pattern, miles apart in that (frozen tundra) in North America!

Here’s a map to show you just how far apart the two groups really are:

Maidstone, Saskatchewan, Canada to Sorrento, British Columbia, Canada

The first month “The Good Time Quilters of Blind Bay” made their quilt blocks, they sent me a photo of a group shop:

The second & third months they made their quilt blocks, they sent me some photo’s of just group’s of three blocks from different quilter’s:

They also sent me a group photo with all of their quilt blocks that they’d made thus far:

The Resort Quilt Club in Arizona is also making my originally designed “Cinnamon-teen Chocolate Figs & Roses” quilt as a Block of the Week (BOW) quilt! Their Club started about 25 years ago. There were about 8 members at that time. They have grown to a group of nearly 70 members now!

The Club meets primarily in Jan., Feb. & March of each year. And has done a BOW quite successfully when they meet! In 2019, about 40 of the 75 members completed the BOW. In addition: There are a number of other weekly classes, speakers, challenge projects, service projects, Quilts of Valor & many other quilted blessings!

The Baytown Area Quilt Guild started in 1956 with 15 members. We now have about 77 members which is down from about 90 before Covid. Many have not returned yet. We meet monthly. We have a board of officers, hold our business meeting, then have a speaker who usually does a trunk show of their work.

We set a month aside for community service where we generally sew blankets and bibs for our local pregnancy resource center. We also bring other baby items to donate. Other months we collect items for the homeless shelter, the police dept., Love Network, or food bank. We try to be very community focused. We have an auction once a year as our fund raiser—a live auction of donated quilts from our members, and a silent auction. We also make a quilt each year and sell raffle tickets. All in all it’s a pretty busy group!
