Easy Street Week 2



This is what my 'street' is looking like these days!!

It's calling for a pair of skates.

It's been a busy week.

It was Arnold's Christmas party in Regina, got a peck of new cows to add to the herd and a stop by Colleen's for cookie tasting(which were mighty fine I must say) and tea.

 All in all, it was a good week.

Even though it is really Part 3 on Easy Street...

I have managed to finish Part 2 and Colleen is working on her's.

This package arrived on Friday and is just in time for Part 3!!


 Maybe we will  be ready for Part 4 on Friday!!!

Trust me.. there is hope in the world!!

In Colleen's usual style, I received the grey we are using.


Too cute to use!!




The stacks are mounting and the 4 patches are coming!!


Our quilts are going to look very much the same as we are swapping fabrics for this project.



And since it is Christmas....and I was ordering anyways....



'Santa' thought I should have some Lecien Winterkist by Monica Solorio.

I see some little pouches in the future of this fabric.

I guess time will tell!!

  1. I just love how your street looks! I know, I must be crazy, but I love winter and all it has to offer. Here in Ohio, we have had mild temps. Today we had a thunderstorm and lots and lots of rain. Oh how I wish it were snow!!!
    I don't want snow over the holidays because my children are flying in from CA & TX. After they arrive back home safely, it can cut loose.
    New cows are always nice! There has been a rash of cattle rustling(?) around here lately. The farmer I get my beef from had 16 cattle stolen :(
    I am happy you are posting your steps as you get them done. I didn't participate in this mystery so it is nice to see how it is coming together.

  2. How many cows are in a peck of new cows? You sure sound like you are busy! Your road looks like it is every icy! That sure makes me want to stay inside. I live in Colorado, but we don't have many days where the roads look like that. You look like you are doing just fine on Easy Street! Happy sewing :-)

  3. After the ice that first weekend in December, someone posted a photo on FB of people ice skating on the main street of Glen Avon. You are barreling along on your project while I am content to get 8 pairs of potholders done for Christmas.
