She is inspired by traditional Japanese kimono design to create garments with elements of that tradition - simple lines, quilting, piecing of fabrics, and creative use of colour and texture. Sandra has an Arts degree and trained in apparel design, pattern drafting and tailoring at the University of Manitoba.
	Veronica Scott, Secretary www.veronicascottmosaics.com Mosaics "The act of transforming little pieces of disparate glass into a 'painting' strikes me as magic. Stained glass offers a glorious colour palette and an equally wide range of textures. I am especially drawn to the reflective nature of glass, the way it creates movement and a feeling of 'aliveness.' "
	Joyce Leroux, Director Stained Glass windows, suncatchers and candleholders "I enjoy the whole process from designing the pattern to choosing which glass I’m going to use and then putting the whole project together. The end product is always a surprise. There’s always a new piece of glass to be found that inspires you to create something new. The options are endless."
	Lana McQueen, Director Photographer Lana has a special interest in photographing nature - birds, horses, and her favorite pet cat.
	Margot Page www.margotpage.com Enameling on Copper and Steel Margot's process involves drawing images such as mammals, birds, and the exotica of faraway places on steel or copper, sifting fine coloured silicates on to the metal, firing the work in a hot kiln and then mounting the artwork on chosen surfaces, glass vases and journals.
	Katie Daniel Rag rugs, fabric arts "I first learned to sew after Santa brought me a tiny working Singer sewing machine when I was about seven years old. I come from a long line of quilters and treasure those that have been created by my grandmothers, an aunt, and my Mom.I began making rag rugs about 25 years ago, inspired by those that used to be in the kitchen at my grandparents' farm. While those were woven on a loom, I chose to crochet mine and took advantage of bags full of fabric scraps to start. "

	Patti McNeice, Eclectic by Nature Pottery Patti makes imaginative pottery pieces. “My grandmother and my mother root my curiosity. Our three spirits dance when I create. It is a magical time; somewhat addictive, I must confess. I am inspired by pattern, textures, and the mystery of seeing something for what it is not. There are no artistic rules in my studio. Things happen by chance, without intention or influence. I move clay and colour around, then add curiosity with bling and bits.”.
	Antho Santarossa Woodworker Antho's bowls are smooth as silk. Many are segmented, composed of hundreds of small pieces.
