Quilts in the Gardens - Royal Botanical Gardens, Burlington, Ontario, May 14-15, 2011



WELCOME to Quilts in the Gardens, a special exhibition of the Halton Quilters’ Guild. The exhibition takes place on May 14-15, 2011 at the Royal Botanical Gardens in Burlington, Ontario, Canada. The Show Hours are 9am – 5pm on Saturday and 10am – 4pm on Sunday.


THIS year’s show is better – and much bigger – than ever before! We will showcase over 200 quilts by members of the Halton Quilters’ Guild. The beautiful Royal Botanical Gardens has recently opened a new wing, which will house some of our special quilts.

 

A special Showcase of Canada Packers Quilts will be held - demonstrated by Judy Lyons


There will be a wide variety of demonstrations of interest to all quilters. A special demonstration area in the main foyer will showcase tips, techniques, and products for quilting.  Demonstrations will be held every hour during the two days of the show.
