3/2/2023 CCLQ @ Gayle's

Welcome to the Cherry Creek Lane Quilters weekly meeting.


A number of the quilters relayed tales of the recent trip to see the 2023 Hampton Show.  Keep reading to see what goodies they came home with.


Linda's favorite Group BTS RM INDIGO ALBUM inspired this pillow that has hand dyed center piece of fabric surrounded by some Spoonflower fabric.  The "INDIGO" center fabric was shared by another fan and it might find it's way back as a supper surprise.  She has also found a way to display her pin collection for the Group.




Carol has made a wonderful tote bag for her daughter to use when taking her grandson to his baseball games.   Another scrappy donation top and a finished baby girl charms on point done with a twist you can check out the tutorial at Missouri Star


 



Candy has tried out a new technique to make a couple of braid blocks.  And will be looking for fabric to make Modern Lace.


  

Ruth found a number of Kaffee fabrics for her next project "Lacy Log".  She also got back the Houses donation quilt and will be working on the binding.




Lynda shared her show purchases of a new fabric line called Tilda.   https://www.northernthreads.net/tildasfabrics.htm
The plan is to make a tulip quilt.







Deborah shared a whole bunch of goodies and fabrics.





Arthur will love whatever Deborah makes with this Mario fabric.

Here is the coordinated fabrics with some wonderful border type fabric that will show nicely in the long strip blocks of a "Bonnie" quilt.


Gayle got two wide backing fabrics a lovely shawl and some notions.






This basket from French Connection is the perfect holder for some wonderful quilts (no lid required). 

Maggie's baby donation of the week sported some car fabrics.  Also back from Sarah's longarm studio are 3 more donation quilts thanks to Susan, Carol, and Sarah.



 

 

Deedee was sporting a vintage jacket her Mother made just for her.
  

Another donation made with the Sesame Street fabric.


Done for now.  Keep sewing and see you next time.

Behind every quilter is a big pile of fabric.
