Beginning of Easy Street

Well have you heard??? East Street has begun. I finally picked my fabrics, it was kinda easy since they were all in a pile on the table already, just needed to add a constant color to it. Can't remember what I put all these together for before, but since they never got used.............now they are. They were taking up tabletop space.
 Here are a pile of twosies waiting to be upgraded.............
 into 4 patches. This is two stacks of 25. One at a time, I am getting there. Or should I say, 25 at a time I am getting there. Dinner time now, more sewing afterwards.
Here are the photos of some other sewing I have been doing. This top has been sitting around for almost 2 years waiting for the blocks to be sewn together, done!
 Then I took the stack of leftover fabrics and started sewing them together to make a back. Another pile of the tabletop! The back is realllllllllllllllllly long, so I will cut that fabric up into strips and squares for the organized scrap bins.
and yes another box of fabric has arrived from Tonya, have you checked out her fabulous prices on her facebook page yet.............CLICK HERE TO SEE      just go there and join on in the fun and tell her I sent you. Click on the photos tab, and then each picture has others in it, click to each separate one and see if you can get any at a great deal. There is lots of competition, and you have to be quick sometimes. But it is worth it. They will invoice you once a week, and you can either have each invoice shipped, or become a Large Flat Rate Box CaTeer, and have the box shipped when it is full, around 25-35 yards or so. This is what was in the last box I got.

Oh and these Panda's.........there was almost an all out war for these guys! I was glad when she ordered another bolt!!! Aren't they adorable?!?!

My camera battery died, and as I came downstairs to plug it in, there was a box in the hallway. My quilt has arrived home from AMY's and Panto'd out!!!! Woo Hoo, it is ready for binding now. It looks AWESOME! Thanks bunches girl, thanks, thanks, thanks again!!!

I envy your most excellent start with your pretty Easy Street blocks. This is my first attempt at a Bonnie Hunter Mystery quilt.
I noticed you made a comment to Angela's rainbow challenge post about deleting pictures in Picasa so you can add more to your blog. How do you access Picasa to do that? And how do you find out how much of your allotted free storage you have used?

I love your pieced quilt top with the tulips and flowers in the center, very nice! Can't wait to see more Easy Street too. Your shopping exploits have resulted in quite a haul, good for you!

Great job on picking out your fabrics for Easy Street! I always enjoy seeing the different color combinations :*) And great finish on your sampler! I love the setting for the blocks with applique in the center. I'll have to go check out that fabric - LOVE THOSE PANDAS!!!!

I am thinking about joining in on the Easy Street fun. I have pulled 2 fabrics but have not cut or stitched yet. Love your new fabric!
