    After much tribulation and hair-pulling, I offer up my farmhouse, which incidentally is in danger of losing it's porch roof, for what it is worth. Sometime in the future, if I can bear to look at it again, I may add a mail box down at the road.

    Looks to me like you did just fine.

Oh well, it is what it is. :lol: :lol:
    Judy, you had a much better carpenter than I did. Great house.

I was all finished when I realized I had not used my fabric that is suppose to go in every block so I added the kite. Kite flying is one of the things we miss about country living. I am leaving my blocks at the size they are for now, will decide on borders and setting later.
    Oh, neat house but the "two cats in the yard" really does it. Brings back music from long ago.

So please give me your views so I can learn for next time.
    BizzieLizzie, you outdid yourself on this one. Curtains yet. That is pretty lush. Also love that rooster down in the yard, looks like he might be a fighting cock?

    I think your porch roof problem is an issue of bad architecture. I had a hard time getting that roof on too. Love the street your did.

    Everyone's interpretation of this block is so interesting. It's great fun to see all of them.
