10/20/16: CCLQ @ Ruth B's


Welcome to the weekly meeting of the Cherry Creek Lane Quilters at Ruth B's.  Ruth prepared delicious pumpkin bread with cream cheese icing...what a treat! Read on and find out about a wonderful surprise!

What a glorious morning in October! It was sunny and warm enough to quilt on back porch. 

Everyone enjoyed quilting on the porch!
Surprise!  Ruth S returned early from the Bluff and we were all so excited to see her!! Welcome back Ruth!
Ruth shared this stunning quilt of the cottages at The Bluff! This quilt is hand appliquéd, embroidered and hand quilted.  

Here's a close up of the "sewing cottage." Last September, a group of us had a quilting retreat in this lovely home.


Several quilters brought fabric to share for our police support quilt project.


Joanna created this sample quilt and pattern for our police support quilt. 


Joanna enjoys some coffee after the fabric share and discussion about our latest donation project. 

Jean worked on some lovely beaded bracelets.

Candy worked on the binding for a quilt for her niece in Norway.

Here's the wonderful quilt Candy made for her niece.

DeeDee showed this awesome disappearing nine patch quilt. 

Deborah shared that she is now the proud owner of a Janome AQS 25th Anniversary edition sewing machine!  She found the machine on Ebay for an excellent deal and plans to use this smaller, lighter and powerful machine for traveling and classes!

Several quilters went to lunch at Hillsborough BBQ.

Until next week...."good friends are like quilts~they age with you yet never lose their warmth."
