Making Easy Street: Clue 1


I have decided to follow along with Bonnie Hunter's latest mystery quilt, called Easy Street.  I finally finished up the first clue tonight!  Yippee!  (In case you're wondering, there are nearly 200 4-patch blocks in there.  Whew!)

For those of you who may not know Bonnie Hunter, she is known for her scrappy quilts.  She's also known for designing quilts with LOTS of pieces.  When she said that this one would be toned down, I decided to trust her and go for it.  I hope I don't come to regret this decision LOL.

Also, the colors she chose for this mystery quilt are PERFECT for my daughter's bedroom, which we recently redecorated.  Hopefully, this quilt will become my daughter's birthday gift in a few months.  :)

These are the fabrics I am using for this clue:

Grey:

Black-on-White Prints:

So, this is it for now.  Personally, I'm pleased as punch to be caught up at the moment.  Woo hoo!  Now I'll be waiting patiently (or maybe not-so-patiently LOL) for Clue #2 to be published.  What about you?  Will you join in the fun?
