Easy Street--Continued

Still haven't done any cutting for Bonnie Hunter's mystery quilt, 'Easy Street'.  Right now I'm buying all the fabrics. I found one purple fabric on eBay that I'm excited to use for the quilt. It's a Kaffee Fassett fabric and it's the first one of his wonderful fabrics I've bought. I have no idea when I'll get it, hopefully by this weekend. I bought a half-yard, so I'll have plenty left over for the string quilt I'm making (more on that later).

As for shopping for the other fabrics for 'Easy Street', I pulled out my back last week and haven't been feeling up to going shopping. I have been out a few times with my husband,  and let me tell ya, sitting in the car has been torture. As soon as I feel up to it, I'll be out looking for some more purple fabrics, as well as the grey, black on white, turquoise/aqua and lime green.  I don't see myself working on 'Easy Street until sometime in February.

Easy Street

This blog is for my quilting projects only. One that I'll be working on is Bonnie K. Hunter's 'Easy Street' mystery quilt. I'm not sure when I will be starting this project, but I am printing out all parts and instructions now to use later. What I have to do first is shop for the fabrics, as I don't have any in the colors Bonnie chose for this mystery. Right now, I'm putting up a badge for 'Easy Street' so that will be here in case others want to go to the instructions and start on the project themselves.
