A blurry photo of SAQA member (and Canadian SAQA pioneer), Anna Hergert. The report? She was accepting the award of "Teacher of the Year" from the Canadian Quilters' Association at its annual conference, Quilt Canada -- this year being held in St. Catharine's, Ontario.
Anna is a former Alberta resident (who launched the art quilting career of many of us, thank you!) who now lives near Moose Jaw, SK...and she was initially the only rep for the Western Canada Region of SAQA...until she made our American friends see reason (grin). She convinced yours truly to join SAQA in 2008...and my life has never been the same since!
CONGRATULATIONS, ANNA!!
Upon checking out the CQA site, I tripped over last year's winner -- yet another SAQA Western Canada member, Margie Davidson of Edmonton.
Whoa! Are we great, or what?! ;-)
