8/4/2022 CCLQ at Gayle's

 

Welcome to this week's meeting of the Cherry Creek Lane Quilters!

Candy had her Ukraine donation quilted with wavy lines.

Deedee showed the result of the collage day fun that she, Gayle, and Deborah had done this week.  (didn't get a photo of Gayle's but I'm sure we'll see it when it is off the longarm)

She got this wonderful batik of squares and half squares.

And continued to work on the binding of the Solar Flare so close to being done.

Ella shared a picture of a runner that is on her design wall.  

Deborah did her collage work on the bear of this Smoky Mountain quilt.

Carol sure made use of her new embroidery machine by doing unique one of a kind centers to each of these blocks.  This quilt is for a Sorority sister and designs are so custom it will sure be a treasure for her "sister".

That's it for this week.  Tune in again to keep the inspiration going.

 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!

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?)

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!
