Yes, indeed I am loving Easy Street! Thanks so much to Bonnie Hunter and all her hard work to give us this Mystery. And personally, a thank you for opening the door to the possibilities and giving me the gift of confidence that I "can do this". For you see, if I had just seen a picture of Easy Street I would had said no way can I make that quilt and turned the page! But I did do it.....and I am loving the results!
I fell behind on Easy Street at clue 5.........we had to travel to West Tennessee for the funeral of my DH's BIL........we spent a week there with family and friends for the celebration of Ken's life.....making it back to our son's house 2 days before Christmas. I made the blocks for clue 5....took a look at them more closely and ended up unsewing them and doing them all over again!! So on News Years Day I sewed all day long to finish up all the blocks and then got all the additional blocks cut out!

All the parts
Since I had only made half the "parts" I decided to make one of each block just to see what my colors would look life. I really do like the "look". So here are the 4 blocks I have completed,
Knowing that I would not make the quilt as large as Bonnie's I decided to kit up each block. Here are my
I plan on first making the quilt 3X3 to see if it will be large enough with borders for our beds in the Airstream. If this works I won't have to make any more parts. The quilt may need to be 3X4. If so I have made a list of "part" I need to make..
I have enjoyed looking at everyone's Easy Street.....this is a wonderful quilt. Thanks again to Bonnie for doing this mystery.....can't wait to next year! If you would like to see more Easy Street Quilts go here.
