9/19/24 CCLQ at Ruth B's

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

 This week quilters met at Ruth B's home. Candy supplied the tasty snacks.  It was just so wonderful to visit with Ruth.  We had some great show-n-tell! 

Candy started us off showing a Thanksgiving Turkey for the Boutique.   She shared the pattern with Margaret.


Lynda has her Round Robin blocks all together now to decide on border or no border ... small or large ... single or multiple.  Decisions Decisions what's a Quilter to do.  A few ideas were discussed, we'll have to wait an see what the final result will be.




Linda got a donation quilt back ready for binding.  Margaret has the binding all done and will give to Candy so she can machine sew it on.  A true group effort.

Linda has so many BTS Pins that she had to make a 2nd wall hanging to hold them all.  She's thinking of using chop stix to hang them up.


Linda got this wonderful Kaffe fabric quilt top together. All agreed it is very striking.



Maggie brought her Round Robin quilt and reminded the others that we need to have hanging sleves and labels (on back lower right) ready for drop off on Sept 30th for the show starting Oct 4th.  
As well as showing one of the Bat's that will be sold in the show Boutique.

Showed 2 mini quilts finished from Blocks that Ella had passed along.  Fun using decorative stitches. Silent Auction bound if Ella doesn't want them back.

 

Maggie gave Deedee a zip bag made with fabric that has all flower names.  The 8"x8" pattern was one that Linda shared months back.  

Deborah was busy busy busy during the meeting working on the Binding for this original design Bird quilt ... and the "after quilt" on the back.



Cheryl was with us today but her Round Robin was collected for the Sept 30th drop off.


Deedee's Round Robin quilt was also collected for the Show.


Deedee also showed some runners and mini's that will go to the Senior Center Holiday Market Sale.


Ruth was gifted Her Bird quilt that the group made in secret.  





It was lovely to be able to have the meeting at Ruth's.  It all worked out so well we plan on having more meeting's so Ruth can participate.

Sew On Ward till next week!
