FreePress Staff Photo Museum quilt show features V.D.J.Cquilt this M( By JAN DODGE Free Press Staff The V.D.J.C. Club is once agein in the public eye in Whitby. The quilt, dated January 29, 1897 which commemoretes the Vic- toria Diamond Jubilee Celebration Club is now on display along with other heritage quilta in the museum's collection at Lynde House on Highway 2 et D'Hillier St- Dr. Deseree Rowley, curator, said there are nine quilts in the collec- tion because of the lack of exhibit spece. If there was more space she said she would have no dif- ficulty getting more quilts., The oldest quilt in the collection, an American one, is 105 years old. "We think of quilts as decorative, but (in earlier times) they were most often used as blankets to keep warm," Rowley said. Crazy quilts, of which there are two on FROM Pr 16 display, emphasize that quelity as well as the thrifty-minded recyc-' ling of bits of fabric from worn clothing. Pieces of febric of al sizes and shapes were stitched together with little tought to pattern or design. Quilta were generally made of three layera. The top was usually either pieced (pieces of fabric stitched together) or appliqued (shaped pieces of fabric stitched over a foun- dation cloth). A batt of cotton or wool was placed bet- ween the top and backing which was sometimes made of a fine fabric ail in one piece, but more often of bleeched flour or sugar sacks. AUl three layers were held in place on a quilting frame and quilted together with, tiny hend stitches which might themselves form a pattern, or might sim- ply outline the pieces and pattern on the quilt top. Young Whitby girls would have prepered several quilts for their hope cheat. To do thia some would undoub- tedly have had a quilting bee. These were great social events. Samuel Strickland wrote in the second quarter of the l9th cen- tury, "Among the xnany home productions of Canada, the ceunter- pane, or quilt holdsaa conspicuous place, not so much in regard to its actuel usefulness, as the species of frollo 'clept (called) a Quilting-bee, in which the young gen- tlemen teke their places with the Queen-bees, whose labors they aid by threading the needies, while cheering their spirits by talking non- sense... "If several gentlemen receive an invitation te teà, they mey be assured that their ser- vices are required et e Quilting-bee, which of- ten la followed bv cour- Apartment projeet tabled rent geered to income apartments in Whitby which are a credit to the comniunity. Mayor Attersley also informed Dolstre and the residents that the Renterprise prograrn la FROM PG. 8 a provincial program and the building has been given provincial approvel. But Dolstra argued thet since the province uses taxpayers money then the taxPayers Trueék traffie reatricted. However, he did tel the, Brooklin represen- tatives thet he would contact the O.P.P. to have better police en- forcement with regarda to speeding and parking in Brooklin. And according to Wallace, Dineto was receptive to using Thickson Rd. as an alternate to by-pass the downtown erea. The meeting with higher MTC officiels will be held within two or three weeks, said Buffett. sheuld be aliowed to ex- press their opinions on the building. "We just went to ex- press our concerna and esk you to take another look at it," said Dolstre. Doistra wes elso in- formed that the land has been properly zoned for an apertment building since 1981. :)fth tshtpandmatrimonyUl During Victorien times, Rowley said, the,: quilting bee was a social' function which 'the young eligibie mnn could attend aid,, although chaperoned, there was stili room for flirtation betweefi the sexes. The V.DJ.C. qu*ltrý contains blocks which, have embroidered~ signatures of meny oldi Whitby family mem-' bers. There is C McGillivray, identitled. as president of the club, Isabella Dow, whose name is surrounded by a teapot and a teacup; B., Hem; and ý.F. BarnardI who along with F.H. McGillivray has a; crokinole board outlined~ in that block. Rowley is making~ plans for a quilting~ demonstration Satur- day, July 19. The Heritege Quilt~ Exhibition will continuet to July 20 at the Whitby > Museum (Lynde House). for nowml In the end, efter' councillor Marcel Brunelie expresaed a' concern that the, epar-.j tment building design.' did not fit in wlth the", nelghbourhood's ep- peerance, council, agreed to table ap-~ proving the site plan for, one week. Guitar st--.klrt An electric guitar and some electronic equip- ment were stolen from 121 Brock St. S. No. 1 between July 5 and 6. The equipment valued et $670, belonged to a band. Presentation 1
