Not the best photo because my larger design wall is in a hallway so photos are taken at an angle because there is not enough room to get a shot full on.
I quickly did the math - 2,377 pieces in this design |
I spent the last week working on getting the blocks and setting triangles sewn together for my "Easy Street". What a lot of sewing. But still more sewing to do to get this quilt top completed. I still have to sew the blocks into rows and that will probably take me a few days. And then on to the borders. In the pic below you will see what I have chosen. I like how the black solid pulls out the white w/black background fabrics. As far as how I will quilt this large quilt, well, I am not sure yet. It usually takes me a while to decide on how to quilt each quilt I make. But whatever I decide, I know I will love it! I have discovered that with my quilting, I only do what makes me happy...how about you?

My border option. |
I have started another mystery quilt! I know, I know....but that's how I roll. I signed up to follow
Darlene @ Quilts by Darlene (a Nova Scotia quilty girl, like me) as she gives a clue on the first Friday of the month for about the next eight months. It will be a border quilt mystery. Love it! The first step is the centre, which are snowball blocks, 30 of them, 4 1/2". Then each row after this will be a different border style. Here is how Darlene's centre looks. I am using a charm pack called " Simple Abundance" for my centre. Very subdued colours..quite the opposite of Easy Street. This will be fun!
