    OK, here's the block we're going with. Each house is 6", so when they're sewn together, you get a 12" (finished size) block. We're using Kim Diehl fabrics, so contrast is hard to achieve. I did try to go lighter with the door/window. We're going to make it in another colorway with brights.

    Oh, I like that. 6 inch houses, those are some tiny logs. Are you paper piecing it?

    No, we're just piecing it the regular way. I thought about paper piecing, but there would be so many tiny sections, that I thought it would just make things more complicated.
