10/2/25 CCLQ @ Britt's

 
Welcome  

This week 6 of the Cherry Creek Lane Quilters met at Britt's home and shared some quilting both small and large.

Candy has her 2024 Round Robin Blocks made into Placemat's that are being donated to the Passmore Tuesday Quilters for the Holiday Market Sale on Nov 22nd from 9am to 2pm.

Candy plans to use this pattern that Linda purchased a few weeks ago to finish the double braid she brought to share and get ideas.

  

And Candy like Gayle's current project and also got the Pattern ... can't wait to see what her colors will be.

Cheryl is standing tall in front of her latest Josephine's Knot quilt that she had to super-size for her friends custom fit.  

Brit is very happy with the quilting motif having run it as a vertical design versus the usual horizontal swirls.  The thread color works so well on the back.

Deborah's Carpenter Star now has the final border and boy oh boy is it striking.

Gayle's got the blues (not what you think) and is very happy about having this framed rail fence blocks all done.

Gayle's got a follow up design in her future.

Britt found a pattern in one of her own books to use up box full of left over gorgeous colors.

Britt continues to work on this half square on point scrappy top that brings sunshine to all who see it.

Maggie finished another of the Sew Lux Pouch Club designs.  This time it was using a mini tumbler ruler and mini charm pack. 

A little more experimenting with decorative stitches.

Maggie also made a "Pass the Dish"  9x13 casserole cozy.  Having used the Soft and Stable foam batting/stabilizer in the pouches was the incentive to tackle this cozy that used both foam and insul bright.

That's all for this week.  

Quote of the meeting was "element of surprise" ... bad note taking because I don't recall what the surprise was.

Let's see what next week brings ... that's always a surprise.

 Welcome to the weekly meeting of the Cherry Creek Lane Quilters.  This week the group met at Britt's. For some unknown reason the today's group was into comedy improv! The conversation started off with a discussion about leaking toilets.  DeeDee explained once she was away on a trip and returned to a "gastronomical" water bill due to a leaky toilet. 

Britt's lovely art quilts adorn her living room walls.

Candy has just moved and is looking forward to setting up her sewing room. 

Carol reported that she has cut out some Peter Rabbit blocks and finished the Moses pillow. 

Linda shared a joke heard on the preview for a new sitcom.  "A man in the office was having a bad day. One of his coworkers said, "Don't be so self-defecating." 

DeeDee finished a couple of blocks from Ruth B for the Passmore Craft Show. 

DeeDee also finished this cute Christmas quilt top for the craft show. 

Backing for the Christmas quilt. 

Deborah finished one quarter of the Carpenter's Wheel quilt. 

Lynda shared some lovely fabric from Bull Town Quilt Shop's sidewalk sale. 

Britt shared this beautiful rug frame with the beginnings of a rag rug. 

Close up 

Last joke...you had to bee there....Candy asked Carol, "What kind of bag is that?"   Carol had some fabric in a Zaxby's take out bag that read, 'Fingers and Sauces.'
  Carol replied, "It's a Louie."  Candy looked puzzled.  Carol, "It's a Louis Vuitton," and held up her handbag.  The group nearly rolled on the floor.

Until next time, laughter is the best medicine. Happy Quilting!
