The Community Quilting Project brings together creativity, community spirit, and Northern pride — and we’re incredibly proud to see the work and passion behind it being recognized across the province.

THANK YOU! We would like to extend our sincere thanks to everyone who participated in the ONR Quilt Block Project. All quilt block packages have now been distributed, and we are eagerly looking forward to seeing the completed blocks returned and assembled into the finished quilt.

This special community project has brought together creativity, community spirit, and appreciation for the return of the Ontario Northland Railway ‘Northlander’ to our area and the north. Once completed, the ONR quilt will be proudly displayed at the museum for all visitors to enjoy.

We extend our appreciation to Gayle of ‘GEM Sewing’ in New Liskeard for co-ordinating this project. Gayle’s support of this museum initiative, along with her ongoing contributions to many other community projects, is sincerely appreciated.
