We publish Culture Flash
to provide Canadians with a forum for sharing ideas, solutions, stories and experiences. Content is contributed by various Canadians and does not necessarily
reflect the views of CanadianCulture.com.
Our newsletter is also archived online.
We thank you for your support!
Last week we were faced with the need to find a new message board provider. We are now
pleased to introduce our completely restructured message board system, powered by CoolBoard.com.
It is our hope that this new system will allow you
to become even more involved by taking part in our forum, creating polls, sending messages to friends,
leaving voice messages, or posting pictures.
Check out our new message board that will help us maintain closer ties with fellow Canadians click here

Three Generations of Quilting
by Lynette Sarah Plett
Quilts tell stories about the women who makes them and the families they pass through.
My love for quilts stems from, in large part, the stories that they tell. Quilting helps me to connect with the women in my family whose stories are unlikely to appear in written histories.
Grandma, Sarah Doerksen Bartel, was born in 1901 in Steinbach, Manitoba. She moved to Satanta, Kansas when she was sixteen years old and married Grandpa in 1920.
