The Houses quilt top is all pieced and ready to be quilted.
These house blocks were panels that i got in my Aunt Sophie inheritance. i just never could give them up...i thought some day i would make something from them. i cut the large houses into 10" squares and the smaller houses into 7" squares.
First i was going to paper piece house blocks for the border but decided that would take away from the house blocks that were there.
Paper pieced trees. love the turret on this blue house.
So i thought log cabin blocks would be appropriate. and what goes with houses but trees. so it got trees for the corners.
I don't know which house i like best. they are all so cool. but this one has a fabulous porch.
And this one has a great porch, too. plus, it's yellow!
It will join its many cousins in the to-be-quilted cabinet. don't look for that quilting any time soon. LOL
Now i have incentive to finish the quilt i have on the frame. got an email....a quilt is coming in tomorrow that needs to get done ASAP for a friend. so...got to go quilt. talk to ya..
tomorrow
