Picnic in the Park Canceled
With regret, we have to cancel today’s in-person meeting for the Kanata Quilt Guild. The showers were to start about 9 am but as of 6 am, it is pouring and thundering. It just will not be fun standing in this rain no matter what efforts we take to celebrate quilting and quilters.Thank you all for volunteering to make this a great session for our guild but the rain puts a damper on it. Maybe we can find some opportunities to meet and celebrate over the summer.
Have a wonderful summer and we’ll “see” you in the fall. Leslie
