GRAND BEND - As the weather turns cooler in Septem ber, quilters should mark thei calendars for the 15th annual Lambton Heritage Museum Quilt Show and Sale. This year, dates are Saturday September 14 to Sunday September 22. This popu- lar show annually attracts over 1,500 visitors, and this year, or- ganizers are very excited about the new addition to Quilt Show '96. A new feature for the Quilt Show and Sale will be 'Across Canada'. Each year organizers hope to feature quilts and quilters from across Canada, province by province. For 1996 we will be featuring quilts and quilters from the province of Newfoundland/ Labrador. This exhibit will in- clude examples of contemporary quilting being done by the quil- ters in Newfoundland/Labrador, as well as quilts that reflect the local history or culture ofr the �{larovihce arid' the peopre wito live• there. Among the quitters who have agreed to participate is Sher- ry Bussey - a quilter from Deer Lake, Newfoundland who was re- cently featured in Canada Quilts magazine. She will be sending her work entitled 'Primary Stitch- es' along with two other pieces. The quilt works,of 11 other New-, foundland quilters/artists will be displayed. Also being featured this year will be a collection of traditional hooked rugs from Newfoundland. This collection will be on loan from the Museum for Textiles. Toronto, and features pieces from the Grenfell Labrador Industries of Newfoundland and Labrador. Grenfell rugs have been made sincere 1913 when Dr. W. Gren- fell industrialized the local mat - making activities. These rugs were made from standard pat- - terns, reproduced burlap and then r hooked by local women. They were sold widely through church- es to raise money for medical missions. Another feature will be the Sar- nia Traditional Rug Crafters Guild. Members will be display- ing over 30 different examples of their work. As well, they will be at the Lambton Heritage Museum on the two weekends of the show to demonstrate and discuss their craft from 1-4 p.m. Visitors will be able to see completed rugs made both from new wool and also recycled wool and fabric, and the 'tools that are used in the practice of this traditional art form. in honor of the 150th anniver- sary of the sewing machine, the museum will be hosting a special display of sewing machines from the Jonkman Family Heritage . Collection and Sewing Machine Museum. This private collection includes sewing machines and re- lated artifacts from small to large, and dating back to the first 10 years of the sewing machine in- dustry.

Other student coun- cils have had about half that number with no junior representatives. With this many students on the council, activities and events should be easily planned and organized. If everyone works together and coop erates, things will be made a lot easier and more enjoyable. Grade 9 Welcome Week begins on September 9.
