4/2/20 - CCLQ @ ZoomBEE - Week 3

Welcome to this week's meeting of the Cherry Creek Lane Quilters!!  This is our third week of ZoomBee due to the ongoing need for social distancing because of the COVID-19 pandemic.  Thanks go out to Linda, who is our new administrator for virtual meetings.  Thank you to this week's hostess, Joanna, in her attempt to keep us all on task.

Speaking of tasks...

Jean started us off by taking the screenshot requested by the editor:

Nice job, Jean!  Thanks for smiling, everyone!!

Show and Tell...

She felt like starting a new quilt using THIS pattern.  It's the Ridiculously Easy Jelly Roll Quilt from Michelle @ the blog called From Bolts to Beauty:

Jean shared her latest face mask:

She sewed channels on each end for one long fabric tie:

The upper "tie" goes behind your head and free ends get tied at the back of your neck.  This style is surprisingly secure and also fast to make.

Jean is using ribbon, which makes it even faster.  Not to mention easier on your fingers:

This style is appropriate for holding N95 respirator, as well:

Jean shared her completed (?) machine embroidered quilt:

Ella shared that she needs a haircut:

Dee Dee enjoyed a cuppa during the meeting:

Maggie looks like a professional quilt teacher with her newest quilt top set up over her fabric shelves as a backdrop:

As the meeting wound down, Joy asked, "What's for lunch?!"  The ZoomBEE was adjourned and we all said our goodbyes.
