    Sulabug, That's a really cute block . These were so much fun & now I love house blocks
    I'm in the middle of quilting mine now & I put it together using the Nancy Zieman technique with the strips. So easy, & I did it on the bed instead of my frame & also used fusible batting. Couldn't believe how much better it was for me.

    Mimi..........I can hardly believe how beautiful your House quilt blocks have turned out, in your quilt top!! It's just gorgeous & I Love it!! You must be so proud of yourself, go ahead & give yourself a pat on the back from all of us.
    I am not quite as far along as you, because I am making mine larger. Hopefully I will get there too!! Thank you for the nice comment on my newest block. Be sure to keep us posted when you are all finished with your house quilt.

    Sulabug, your barn is adorable-I love finding just the right material. I love the chickens which scream farm yard to me and the quilt on the door is beautiful-it had to be tiny pieces to work on.

    Mimi, your houses together are gorgeous! I was thinking about putting mine together in a block formation like a townsquare but I like yours because you can see them all. Thanks for showing us.

    Andii............Thank you for your kind words re:my new Barn Block, for my house quilt. It was fun to make & yes the flying geese piece's were small. The Barn Quilt Block is only 4 inches square. It's not perfect, but the best I could do. Now I am making a lighthouse block to add to the quilt top.
