7/21/22 CCLQ @ Candy's

 Welcome to the weekly meeting of the Cherry Creek Lane Quilters.

Linda shared her recent wide back purchases from Pineapple.  If you didn't know, it seems each Wednesday they put a few featured backings on sale.

Candy had a Cat Approved show of two child sleeping mats that are covered with panels.  

How cute is that?

 

 

 

She also shared a tell about pin basting this quilt top.  The Mebane library has some large tables that can be used to layout and pin baste a quilt top.   Certainly saved the drive over to Hillsborough Passmore Center.

Deborah showed here recent Tula Pink - Daydream purchases which are certainly "eye" candy all around.

 

 

Deborah also made use the BQ3 pattern to highlight the kitty cat novelty fabric she got in a past Shop Hop in VA.

Maggie showed two tops that a ready for quilting.   The half squares that got "lost" and then found were used as part of the backing after quilt.  Lesson Learned: when you think you miss counted; check around before you cut and sew more!

Deedee got the quilted Big Bird donation quilt back to bind and has made an assortment of Pinwheel Ornaments for the Passmore Center Craft Fair scheduled in November.

Sew Happy Until Next Week!

7/14/22 CCLQ

Welcome to the weekly meeting of the Cherry Creek Lane Quilters.   

Linda was our hostess at the Passmore Center with an assortment of goodies for the 9 of us.

Candy started off showing a pieced top that may now have a plan for quilting with wavy lines.  The table runner of her own design from triangle strips is done and waiting to be gifted.

Lynda has pieced a top from the pattern "All Boxed In" with some darling Tula Pink fabrics.

She also shared a layer cake of another Tula Pink fabric line that is looking for an equally good pattern.

Carol completed the Yellow, Orange, and Red quilt for a SIL who is just finishing up a round of chemo and this is sure to spread some cheer.  Also the crumb quilt rows are now together.

Cheryl Breeze did the quilting and added some diagonal lines on the border.

Maggie showed one of the Tuesday Groups donation quilts being bound.

Dee Dee got all the boxes from the top shelf of her quilting closet down and found some her Mother's UFO's from the 1980's.  Not her favorite colors but she plans to finish them up somehow.

 

She also shared some christmas ornaments (could they be fashion accessories as well?) 

a tutorial can be found at https://youtu.be/Jq9H8p0np3E 

Deborah reported the Atmosphere quilt is All done and will be making an appearance at the DOQG Show in October.  She also has some wonderful Tula Pink fabric of Kitty Cats and is planning to use it up ... look forward to seeing what she comes up with.

Gayle shared a story of her commission quilt delivery from the past weekend.  The fellow was just over joyed to receive his mothers started projects now completed that he has place on his bed and chair.  

Ruth is looking forward to visiting Oregon with her family and Linda is taking it easy.

Until next week the Geese are wishing us well from the Passmore Center!

 

 

7/7/22: CCLQ at Carol's

 

Welcome to the weekly meeting of the Cherry Creek Lane Quilters.   

Lynda started us off with a grand smile at the finish of the flannel top that was a kit she got at a Hampton VA show some years back.

She also showed the 2nd kitty cat quilt that Britt quilted.

What a wonderful backing fabric it is part of the collection used on the front.

DeeDee showed her big bird donation hot off the longarm.

She also showed what was on her design wall ... another donation in the works.

Deborah continues to bind the Atmosphere quilt and is keeping it corralled by folding it to show the section she is hand binding outside the bag.

Ruth showed what she got from Pineapple ... Dottie's scraps which are from the Edyta Sitar line.

She also shared the sweet child top with the blocks all together.

Carol finished a scrappy quilt of her own design with sashing strips that are very striking.

Crumbs gone wild, here are two rows of a work in progress.

Gayle showed a complete commission top that features embroidery work done by the patrons mother.  Two other blocks might just get made into pillows.

Wonderful colors in this baby quilt that also adorn the back.

Maggie showed two finished tops (Quilting by Britt) the first pattern was from one of the 3-Yard books and even the leftover strip-set pieces got put on the back.  The 2nd quilt started from the DOQG blocks that were won at a meeting.  The 6 center star blocks were made to go with the guild blocks.

Keep sewing until we meet again.
