WELCOME to Quilts in the Gardens, a special exhibition of the Halton Quilters’ Guild. The exhibition takes place on May 14 -15, 2011 at the Royal Botanical Gardens in Burlington, Ontario, Canada. The Show Hours are 9am – 5pm on Saturday and 10am – 4pm on Sunday.

THIS year’s show is better – and much bigger – than ever before! We will showcase over 200 quilts by members of the Halton Quilters’ Guild. The beautiful Royal Botanical Gardens has recently opened a new wing, which will house our special quilts.

THERE will be a wide variety of demonstrations of interest to all quilters.  Demonstrations will be held every hour during the two days of the show.

VENDORS will have their displays throughout the facility. Please see more info at the bottom of the Vendors page.

A SPECIAL demonstration area in the main foyer will showcase tips, techniques, and products for quilting.

THERE is plenty of free parking available. In addition to its regular restaurant which will be open during the show, the RBG will also open a special Cafeteria. If you plan to spend two days at the show, Quality Hotel Burlington will be offering Special Rates!

ADMISSION is $7.00 per person and tickets are available at the door.

IF YOU wish to organize a group to attend the Quilts in the Gardens, a motor coach can be arranged. For smaller groups, pick-up points can be set up to bring groups together. Joy Brennen at Hanover Holidays will provide further information regarding the Quilt Tours. You can contact her by phone (416-247-3024) or by email.

FOR GUILDS and private groups that wish to set up their own tour and pick-up site, please go to the Contact Page and advise the webmaster who will publish the information on this Web site.
