Quilt Reflections 2008 was a great success, and please look for a full report in September’s Prairie Patches. We are still working on the numbers, but it looks like we set a record 3000 attendees to the Quilt Show! 

The Quilt Show Committee would like to thank all of the Sponsors who supported our show with generous donations. We also recognize the generous support of the Manitoba Arts Council for supporting the classes at Quilt Reflections 2008. 

We also recognize the tremendous effort of all volunteers who offered their time and effort in support of a very successful quilt show.
