Design Wall Monday, December 24, 2012

Today I have Easy Street Step 5 to share.  None of the pieces from the first five steps have made it to my design wall yet since we don't know what Bonnie Hunter has in mind for the layout.  I'm excited to see what she's come up with for this year's mystery.  We still have the apple greens to get into the mix.
Fabrics cut into strips and then 3 1/2" turquoise squares and 2" purple squares

Marking the diagonal on 2" purple squares.  Both grey and white lead used, many purples too dark for grey

Sewing the first 2" purple to the 3 1/2" turquoise squares.  Assembly style.

All 64 with the first part of the unit sewn.

Next the top corner just 1/4" above the seam timmed.

Then pressed open.

Next sew the second 2" square to all 64 units.

Trim again.

Press one last time.

Step 5 done!
I hope you were able to get all your holiday gifts sewn in time.  Santa Claus comes tonight!

They look so pretty laid out in rows--all complete!
I have one more quilt to finish--luckily crib size. I'm holding my breath. Better get back to it.
Merry Christmas, Sandi.
We are getting a fluffy snowfall right now. : )
