Bus Trip to Amherst NS


    A whirlwind day was held for Guild members to go on a bus trip to Nova Scotia (approximately a 3 hour trip) and back to Fredericton to view and enjoy the NS Fibre Arts Festival.  This was a special trip in honour of our anniversary year.
   Here is a note that I received from Pat K with an enclosed photo of the bus trip...


Hi Kathy
This is the only pic that was taken during the bus trip to the Fibre Arts Festival in Amherst. I think we were having too much fun to take time for photos.

  By all accounts, I heard that despite the rainy weather, the guild members had a great time!!  Thanks to Dianne K and her helpers.

If any other photos are out there from members that went please email me them and I will post them for all to see.

October Workday

 Another workday or PLAYDAY as some call it was held on Saturday with very good  attendance, at  the Gibson Church Hall.

  I went to the workday to visit and take some photos of our Guild members, but didn't take my camera!!  Thank goodness for Faye Charlton and her great photos, they are perfect and give a great idea to those that were not able to attend of the variation in projects that were being worked on!  THANK YOU Faye!

Here we go, in no particular order...

Thanks all, see you next time,
Kathy F

September/October Meetings with Show and Tell

  I have many photos from September/October's meeting that I am posting from our photographer's camera card, to make sure that they are on the blog.  Because I did not attend the meetings, I am afraid that I cannot tell any stories, or elaborate, but enjoy the photos!
