Welcome to another week at the Cherry Creek Lane Quilter's (virtual) Bee!!!  We had a few technical difficulties today.  Alas, the show must go on.  Thanks to the members who made that happen!

Show and Tell...

Ella: Served as our hostess for today. She was working on corners of her blue and white leftovers from the quilts made for her grandsons.

Carol: Finished lovely Easter baskets for grandkids.  Each basket has their name embroidered on it!  Finished an adorable bear quilt for her grandson (quilted by Joy.)

DeeDee: Took three quilts to Carol H yesterday. Finishing some UFO’s!   Showed a beautiful donation quilt with scraps and black and white and blue.  “Sunday in the Park Revisited” pattern from Jenny Doan. Shared a gorgeous civil war pattern made from batik scraps. Plans to use an orange blossom template to quilt this one.

Lynda:  Started on Bright Squares quilt. It uses 2.5x2.5 inch squares. Britt suggested using a die cutter to make all those little blocks.

Cheryl K:  Cut out the back to the butterfly quilt.  Plans to start quilting the butterfly quilt soon. In the process of cutting out a large bag for a friend who’s retiring.

Ruth S:  Loved the blog post honoring Joanna...Thank you, Joy!  Shared the “I spy” quilt.  This quilt was based on the “I Spy” books which always included a poem to help kids find the objects.  Ruth wrote her own poem for the quilt and puts in on the front of the quilt.

Joy:  Challenge week for Project Quilting... the prompt is “fussy cut”.  Found a bag from DeeDee with cars and made a cute wall hanging using cars on front and back.  Working on quilting her pink table runner.

Linda H: Made a couple more purple and black blocks for her quilt.  Will show next week.

Ruth B: Used a new pattern to make a mask and really likes it. (It matches her shirt almost perfectly!)

Deb: Finished LWR donation quilt top for Joy.  Made block 8 for BOM project. Four more blocks to go! Ready to do an improv block.

Cheryl B: Shared a cute house block...sewed by hand!  Made a lovely blue quilted box complete with removable top. Shared a dramatic black and white border for a stunning appliqué quilt.

Maggie:  Camera wasn’t working but used screen share to show us a stunning “Stacked Up” quilt by Colourwerx. Went to Cary Quilting to get fabrics for a Ricky Tims Convergence Quilt.

Britt:  Shared that she is closer to done on her commission and she started her table runner challenge quilt

Thanks for stopping by to see what we've been working on.  We hope you will come back soon!  Members: Please send any corrections for the information in this post to Joy for an update.

Until next time...
