150 years … That’s something to celebrate !!!

The logo of 150-M100QDC Special Edition for Canada’s 150th, was designed by Canadian artist Tamara Kate who is one of our Janome Artisans as well.  www.kayajoydesigns.com

Throughout Canada’s history, generations of seamstresses have adopted the art of quilting for practical and creative purposes. Canada’s quilt guilds are a great way to meet friends who share this passion. There is a HUGE celebration and charity quilting project currently underway with the Canadian Quilters Association/ACC with the BIG QUILT BEE .  Quilters all over  Canada – and beyond – are currently busy making blocks, quilt tops and quilting (hopefully) 1000 quilts to donate to Ronald MacDonald Houses across Canada.

Discover Canada’s quilt organizations. You will find inspiring galleries, a variety of quilt resources and membership information on Associations websites.

The Canada 150 ( M100QDC) is stylish yet powerful. To appreciate the characteristics and the electronic functions that make this machine a dream, it is best to sit down at the machine and sew!  Watch for a further post where Celine presents her samples and project!
