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.

The Utah group also sent some stickers to share with our quilting group. 

Lynda reported that she’s almost finished with the flannel stars quilt. She’s looking for black batting to use with this quilt.  The group had several suggestions of where to find black batting. Lynda also has started a new project using the Tula Pink fabric from Pineapple. 

Gayle shared the second project completed on her new Moxi long arm!  This is a lovely throw for the person who commissioned Gayle to make quilts from his grandmother’s unfinished Baptist Fan blocks.

 Welcome to the weekly meeting of the Cherry Creek Lane Quilters. This week the group met at Carol’s. Candy may have started a new tradition of sharing fabric!  This week DeeDee brought a load of fabric and other sewing notions to share with the group!  Sorry I missed taking photos of the two vintage quilt tops that DeeDee rescued and wanted to find a new home for.

Here’s the table full of wonderful fabric and notions DeeDee shared with the group.

Carol showed this delightful bug quilt made for her granddaughter.

Take a look at Cheryl B’s amazing quilting including Trapunto detail on the bugs!

Carol finished this lovely donation quilt. 

Carol made this whimsical pillow from the face quilt she created as part of the  Freddy Moran challenge. 

Lynda is loving working in the garden.  She planted several plants to attract hummingbirds and her husband looks forward to capturing some photographs of the hummers in the backyard. 

Deborah is happy to nearly be finished with the Atmospheric Quilt.  The binding is sewn and waiting to be completed by hand. Suzan Deserres from Singing Stitches quilted this using the serendipity design.
