Welcome to the weekly meeting of the Cherry Creek Lane Quilters!
Cheryl started off with a bag of fabrics she got from a neighbor and she doesn't have a use. We all agreed she had to keep the mole piece ... might make a nice bag. She showed us a completed NICU donation sporting butterflies. Her blue blocks are getting a workout as she tries to make a throw out of the different type of blocks.
Candy had lots to show after her trip to Cary Quilting last week. But first she showed the last finished topper/placemat from some orphan blocks. Next she showed the throw quilt with the final border added. The backing has those wild mod loopy flowers. Final show was of the next pattern, "Safety Dance" and fabrics.
Ruth has her first (and maybe only) Modern quilt ready for the long arming. She pieced the back in some lovely green and left over fabric blocks from the front.
Deborah has started on the blocks for a quilt titles "The World Through My Window" by Karen Nyberg. She has started on the outside edge blocks since they have more pieces than the inner blocks.
Britt is busy with the wedding quilt and will be proceeding with the offset block once the bride gets a say. She sure does seem calm with the wedding just a few more months.
Maggie showed a child donation quilt made from 3 Tin Men blocks and some colorful rail fence blocks. She finished her #5 UFO and quilted one of Barry's UFO's of Sale boats and striking black and brown fabric.
Carol has the blocks she was gifted last week in a finished Top ... such a sunny yellow looks great. After that she had 2 more completed donation tops. She might be slowing her roll now that she has a pile of tops that need quilting.
Gayle has been busy with garment construction that took a bit of thinking to get started on. She offered to quilt 2 of Carols donation tops. It's good to have friends....
Joy was sporting her Valentine theme jacket and showed us a couple of her challenge projects. The green is in process and the horse prompt really says giddy up.
Our Hosted Ella showed us how to work those left over half square triangles that were the cut-offs from the twin bed quilts she made years back. The Grandsons really like the signal flags she made that spell out each of their names.
That's it for this week!
