    katybob, would you share your measurements for your house part with the door? It's adorable.

    Thanks, Redtop. SheriR, here are the measurements. I paperpieced the bottom half, so if you don't paperpiece it, add 1/4" around each section.

    Those houses are So-o cute! Can't wait to start mine. Took a photo of my scrappy baskets. Now I can start the houses.

    katybob, thank you for posting your paper piecing measurements. I started my house blocks using that method and it really goes together quickly.

    I have joined the bitty blocks club. Not sure which fabrics to choose I decided on my 30's fabrics. They are so cute but I am thinking totally scrappy would look better so I may need to make 2 sets.

    Louise you will find the patterns at Quiltmaker.com. Click on blog and then Quiltmaker Editors Blog. You will have to scroll down to find Jan., Feb. and March blocks. They are posting each new pattern the first Monday of each month.
