Easy Street Brakes On

I suppose I should have been finishing up Easy Street, but I decided I'd put the brakes on, pin a few more blocks onto the design wall, take a picture for the blog & Quiltville's link up (which was yesterday! if you haven't already, check out the beauties there), then take it down and work on it when I can get the living room cleaned up enough, and vacuumed, so that I can lay it out on the floor.   I could just close my eyes and sew the blocks together, and it would probably work, but I suppose I'm just anal enough that I want to make sure I don't have too many of the same fabrics in one area and not in another.  That said, here's another photo, just willy-nilly pinned to the design wall...it will get sewn together, just not right now.

Easy Street - partial
I am really loving this quilt!

  1. Looking great. I'm like you in that I'm trying to keep from having too much of the same fabric all clustered in one area. When I get all my Easy Street blocks sewn together, I'll probably lay them out on the floor and take pictures of a few layouts to make sure I like it :)

  2. I love the fabrics you chose for this - my favorite of all I've seen so far. I didn't try this mystery - too many other projects to complete before I take on a new one.

  5. Looks beautiful in your colors. I love the gold--it really warms it up.
    Hey, I have barely assembled one of each block. You are way ahead of me traveling down Easy Street! : )

  6. I so relate to your post about having to lay it out so that you don't have the same fabrics too close to each other. I had to clean up my kitchen floor to lay mine out because that is the only space large enough for this big quilt! I moved from the coast to the high desert and felt misplaced for many years! I love your home page photo and your easy street color choice goes well with it! Very pretty!!

  7. Looks beautiful and I did the same thing....waited until the cats took their nap and laid the blocks on the floor...best way for me to work.

  8. I love your golds and blues together. There is a lot of sewing at the end, but it's totally worth it. I've enjoyed seeing the different colour schemes.
