Cool sets! I see a few of my blocks in there. :mrgreen:
When putting my top together, I found that the small blocks were equally as "valuable" as the larger blocks. Whenever there was a gap, a small house or two fit right in that space perfectly. Very handy! :)

I got on a "small kick" and made a lot of 3 1/2 inchers, so thought I'd get a lot of little ones back! Now, I feel like some of you who made big ones and got my tiny ones were a little shortchanged, so please- if you sent in "BIG" and got my "tiny," PM me, and I'll send you a bigger one. I'm going to be making more for myself, because I want a regular sized quilt, anyway.
And some of you didn't label your work, so please let me know who you are and consider yourself THANKED!

Okay, ladies, I hear you. I just had to offer- I feel overwhelmingly gifted from the terrific assortment, and I just want everyone to feel as happy!! Again, thanks to Rachael for all her coordinating. Let the fun continue as we make our quilts and see how this all turns out!

I just looked at all the pics of funky town tops and saw 4 of my blocks! I can't tell you how excited it made me to see my house in everyone's neighborhoods. I, unfortunately, had to put my neighborhood on the back burner, because I have 2 baby quilts to make, along with other baby "things". and we all know the kind of deadlines babies give us quilters!! Hopefully, I will have the last one complete by the middle of October and can complete my neighborhood in time for Christmas!
