7/7/16 - CCLQ @ Dee Dee's Again!!

Editor: Welcome to this week's meeting of the Cherry Creek Lane Quilters!!

You: WAIT!!  Wasn't LAST week's meeting there, too?!?!

Editor:  That's right.  Per Dee Dee, sometimes the schedule just works out that way!

Thanks for hosting the six members who were able to attend this week's meeting, Dee Dee.  Your new French Press makes FABULOUS coffee (and from what I heard, the fresh fruit was delicious, too!!)

We had a quick Show and Tell, before Joy had to race out to another engagement...

Linda and Jean:

Dee Dee and Candy:

Joy and her nearly completed Calico Rick Rack Quilt:

CCLQers had not seen this one quilted, if at all:

Joy explained how the quilt was constructed:

Candy took a closer look. The shot doesn't look staged, does it?

Jean prepared to get to work:

Dee Dee had a few words to say about how far Cheryl K. has come as a quilter.  She then showed another Bird Quilt that Cheryl might like to draft up and make:

 Oops!!  I managed to miss getting a shot of the quilt.  Looked at it with my eyes, but totally forgot the camera.  Sorry about that!!

Dee Dee was inspired by Jean's quilting advice last week:

HERE is the front of her practice piece...

... And THIS is the back of the same piece:

Cheryl K. was also inspired to practice.  FRONT:

She feels like she needs MORE practice!  BACK:

Dee Dee made an adorable Hexi Pin Cushion:

Candy's SHOW was an article about the chef at The Table:

Cheryl K. has made a 2nd set of purple hearts for our Pulse Quilt:

Jean got a new book:

One lone Impatien plant seeded itself in the walking path:

Show and Tell was followed by more conversation (and a little bit of work) until the lunch alarm went off, signalling that fun time was over.

Three members dined at Saratoga Grill, while one went off to do untold errands and another went home to recover from spilled coffee and other such maladies.

Hope YOU can join us next week!!
