Welcome to the weekly meeting of the Cherry Creek Lane Quilters. This week quilters met at DeeDee’s home. Lots of excitement was in the air about the upcoming DOQ quilt show and visit from Ruth S! The group planned to meet on Friday at the show and go to lunch afterwards.
There was also discussion about Hurricane Helene and the devastation in the NC Mountains. There are several places to donate disaster relief supplies, MapleView Ice Cream, Orange Grove Fire Department on Orange Grove Road. For other places check here:

| Candy had a fun trip to New York. She reconnected with family and also some friends she worked with years ago in the Peace Corp. One friend gave Candy this lovely batik fabric a while back and asked if she had made anything from it. Candy asked for suggestions from the group and may create 5 wall hangings from this lovely fabric. |
