Easy Street & Sugar Block Club

This is gonna be a less than wordy- more pictures post.
I am swamped with getting  things done before school starts on the 14th.
Including reading my brains out- I read my 30 pages of syllabi last night and wanted to cry: what am I getting myself into?! (Hopefully all that will be gone when I get started!)

First up: Easy Street! Which, by the way- keeping all those 4-patches turned correctly, isn't easy.

 Bits & pieces
Starting Corners
Corners- really all together.

 A corner made.
Corners all together.



Then, of course there is the Sugar Block Club-  I haven't started on the block for this month yet. I plan to start it possibly Sunday. I should have some free time on Sunday. Should. I am on-call all weekend and Sundays are very unpredicatble. Sucks, sometimes, being a nurse.
Ok, so I feel like a complete dunce. I kept getting online and tracking my wonderful, fabulous fabrics. And, then, cause of the New Year holiday- it didn't update.  But, on Wed- while I was at work- I checked and it said that it had been delivered! On the 31st!!! O.M.G. I guess I really should check the mail more often! It had been there the whole time.  

The charms are what Julies threw in to surprise and utterly seal-the-deal on my next purchase! EEEk! I love them. Notting Hill: poppy colorway. They can be found at the Intrepid Thread. As for the bundle I purchased, Sun on Sea I absolutely love it. I love the SUN and I love the SEA. And, I did add a couple of dark, popping tasty bits too! I know I will use them! There is no compensation for this ad! LOL- really. But, I will tell you: I emailed Julie at The Intrepid Thread and I told her my fav colors and what lines I really liked and she immediately hit the nail on the head with this bundle. Wonderful works!
 
Sew, till next time!
Thanks for stopping in!
