Circles workshop in Victoria – 2023.08.24

Last week I travelled to Victoria BC to do a presentation and workshop for the Victoria Quilter’s Guild. The presentation was mostly a PowerPoint slide show, plus I brought some of my smaller quilts to show.

.

The Circles workshop was the first I have taught since Covid, and it just as fun for me and the participants as I remembered. Here are just a few of the circle blocks made by participants during the workshop.

Victoria is one of my favorite cities to visit, partly because it beautiful, yet quirky, and partly because I have family there. Here a few of my favorite photos from my visit last week.

  • From the bounty of my sister Anne’s garden – applesauce-fig concoctions with coconut cream, garnished with figs, white and red raspberries and currents.
  • Garden trolls.
  • Lovely little library.
  • Ubiquitous deer in a parking lot.

.

  • Anne’s garden of hobbits, gnomes, dragons and other mythical creatures.
  • A music fest at a small neighbourhood park.
  • Wandering the Inner Harbour area in the evening.
  • BC Parliament Buildings lit up at night.

.

It was a wonderful week, and I plan to visit again soon.

I’m linking up with Nina-Marie’s Off the Wall Friday.

    Thank you for sharing all of these wonderful images, Terry. Your circle quilts are so expressive and special. I love Victoria and Vancouver Island and I love your sister’s Hobbit garden and everything in it. Hugs. Heidi
