Quilting Holiday Update

Having a lovely time here in Canada, the scenery and colours are fabulous it's hard to describe.  We have been to some lovely places so far Montreal city, with visit to the Notre dame Basillica.
A little village called Hudson where we met with a lovely group called the Hudson village quilters who showed us some of their work and gave us a demonstration on needlepoint applique and Hawaiian quilting.
We have visited a quilting shop on the mohawk reservation and met with the owner who showed us some of her work and explained about their culture.
We then moved on to the eastern township's and yesterday met with the lennoxville quilters who were very hospitable. We had  a demonstration on the stack n whack tecnique.
We've also visited the abbey of st Benedict and a vineyard for wine tasting.
