10-16-25: CCLQ at Lynda’s

 Welcome to the weekly meeting of the Cherry Creek Lane Quilters.  This week the group met at Lynda’s Google offered a new blog trick today. It automatically puts a link on our frequently used words.  

Lynda’s beautiful array of quilts adorn the balcony.

Deborah shared the Carpenter’s Wheel quilt for her nephew’s wedding gift.

Linda has lots of panels and found this cool book by Gudrun Ella and Doug Lego with many innovative border ideas. 

Linda shared this beautiful Klimt inspired panel.

Here’s a possible border option for the panel. 

Linda also ordered a variety of Klimt fabrics to create the borders. 

Here’s another wonderful Klimt kitty panel. 

Gayle finished this colorful Fossil Fern quilt  for a member of the Fellowship group. 

Gayle has also started another quilt for a Fellowship friend.

10/9/25 CCLQ @ Cheryl's

 Welcome to the Cherry Creek Lane Quilters.   Cheryl was our host and we were a small but mighty group of quilters.

Maggie went first because she really wanted to show the group something and see if they knew what it was.  Can you figure it out ...

It is a vintage Pin It Skirt Marker 7-20" 

not so rare search on ebay has 400 results.

How to use it video on Youtube from National Sewing Circle here.

Maggie quilted and bound one of Ella's holiday toppers it will be going to the Passmore Holiday Market.

Gayle has got a new quilt design in the works and could it be yes I believe it is fosil fern fabrics.

Candy continues to settle in to the new sewing room but we will have to wait for the next show of what's in progress.

Britt had some electronic shows.  The wedding quilt pattern has been selected from a design that will take some time to decipher since it was a concept book not exact instructions.  It is sure to be a show stopper.  And after last weeks meeting where a few of us reviewed the quilting room she found another cubbie of the same style and positioned it on top of the other to gain valuable storage space.

These are not the couples colors but the design looks so delicate.

Cheryl finished off a donation quilt of blues.

Thats all for this week.  

Quote of the week how "husbands can help".  The air quotes that were issued by the teller just made the story.

10/2/25 CCLQ @ Britt's

 
Welcome  

This week 6 of the Cherry Creek Lane Quilters met at Britt's home and shared some quilting both small and large.

Candy has her 2024 Round Robin Blocks made into Placemat's that are being donated to the Passmore Tuesday Quilters for the Holiday Market Sale on Nov 22nd from 9am to 2pm.

Candy plans to use this pattern that Linda purchased a few weeks ago to finish the double braid she brought to share and get ideas.

  

And Candy like Gayle's current project and also got the Pattern ... can't wait to see what her colors will be.

Cheryl is standing tall in front of her latest Josephine's Knot quilt that she had to super-size for her friends custom fit.  

Brit is very happy with the quilting motif having run it as a vertical design versus the usual horizontal swirls.  The thread color works so well on the back.

Deborah's Carpenter Star now has the final border and boy oh boy is it striking.

Gayle's got the blues (not what you think) and is very happy about having this framed rail fence blocks all done.

Gayle's got a follow up design in her future.

Britt found a pattern in one of her own books to use up box full of left over gorgeous colors.

Britt continues to work on this half square on point scrappy top that brings sunshine to all who see it.

Maggie finished another of the Sew Lux Pouch Club designs.  This time it was using a mini tumbler ruler and mini charm pack. 

A little more experimenting with decorative stitches.

Maggie also made a "Pass the Dish"  9x13 casserole cozy.  Having used the Soft and Stable foam batting/stabilizer in the pouches was the incentive to tackle this cozy that used both foam and insul bright.

That's all for this week.  

Quote of the meeting was "element of surprise" ... bad note taking because I don't recall what the surprise was.

Let's see what next week brings ... that's always a surprise.
