Our Canadian quilters might have seen some familiar looking fabrics in the Toronto Star on Sunday. This inspirational feature tells the story of a family seeking refuge from their violent home life in India, charting their long and succesful lives and careers for over 50 years.

The story includes a group photo of the whole family celebrating their 50th anniversary living in Canada with a beautiful anniversary quilt made using fabrics from Northcott's Canadian Sesquicentennial collection, and the Maple Leaf Forever pattern - available to download for free HERE!
