Design Wall Monday 12/17/12

There wasn't much free time for quilting this week, but I did manage to stay caught up on the Easy Street mystery.  I am only making about half the number of parts that Bonnie's instructions list, with the plan that mine will be a lap quilt.  If I end up loving the design, I have plenty of fabric to make it bigger.  I have stacks of different units all pinned together in groups of 10.  There are still some flying geese to join together to complete Part 4.


I couldn't resist playing with some design possibilities!



I will be linking up to Patchwork Times for Design Wall Monday and also the Easy Street link-up to see other people's progress on the mystery.

    Wow! I love the dark colorway. It's fun to try to guess what Bonnie has in store for us, isn't it?

    Everyone seems to be thinking up design possibilities - I don't htink I like the bottom one much ... but the middle one looks good

    It's fun to see the design ideas. These units can go with lots of different blocks. I like your darker "lights!"

    Your colours look really great and I really like your block designs. It's fun seeing all the guesses.

    Gorgeous layout ideas and I am partial to the first one, I usually find I wind up scrapping the pattern and doing what speaks to me, so I don't usually do mysteries, lol. You have a great start on this one!!

    Interesting setting ideas. I have been so busy sewing the units together I haven't had any time to think about settings. I do like your colors: so different from mine.
