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.

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
