10/6/16 - CCLQ @ Joanna's

Eight members of CCLQ were hosted by Joanna this week. Coffee and scones were waiting when we arrived... even though she couldn't eat the treats. Thanks for having us over when you probably should have been taking it easy after yesterday's dental appointment!

Apparently, Candy, Dee Dee, and Joy were the recipients of this weeks color cue memo:

Here is a secret shot of Joanna's Stonehenge quilt on the frame:

Joy busied herself hand stitching a pin cushion closed:

Cheryl K. worked on the binding of her Bird Quilt:

Look closely, Deborah is binding a quilt, too:

Ella was trimming HSTs:

Candy added to the "binders" at today's meeting:

Between The Tooth and hostess duties, Joanna's hands were idle...

... But, Linda provided her with good company:

Deborah shared this Fish Quilt photo taken at a recent show:

Dee Dee spent the morning sketching a design from the same show:

Joanna sent around her newest quilt book...

THIS is a better look at the quilting:

Linda was the happy recipient of the pin cushion that Joy made:

Speaking of Joy...

She insisted on seeing Joanna's recently completed quilt top:

The pattern is from a Karla Anderson book (but the photographer became distracted by the wonderful patterns and missed a picture of the front cover.)

The group voted on THIS design for our next Donation Project:

Candy discussed the particulars of Joanna's design:

Including incorporating a "thin blue line" in the updated version:

The entire group went on a Field Trip...

Where THIS pattern is featured:

Cheryl K. shared a photo of one of the FABULOUS mosaic tile floors seen on her recent trip to Italy:

Dee Dee's alarm went off and 6 of us went off to enjoy lunch at Bennett Pointe Grill on the edge of Durham:

Until next time...
Share your talents!!!
