I'd love to see them all in person. There seems to be so much to see in each one. Really nice. Are they all from patterns or do you sometimes "do your own thing"? Thanks for sharing.

I also love to make house block patterns. I made one almost like your last one displayed here...the pattern was called HULA HUTS, designed by a local quilter on Kauai, Hawaii, where I lived before coming to Salt Lake City (ugh :-( so cold) I SOLD it at our Quilt Guild quilting bazaar (?) $50.00...was I thrilled! Thanks for sharing. CAROLSLC

Am drooling too! The German people are so creative! I loved Nurenberg with the KrisKringle Markets! Fabulous creations all over, esp. Garmisch/Partenkirschen; fabulous creativity there! Never saw a piece of trash in any German's yard the whole time I lived there!! Thank you for sharing this; will go back and revisit more of their work time allowing.

:D :D

Not mine, but fabulous quilt they did! These photos are my inspiration pieces only. Works were done by talented quilters; I'm just the collector!! So glad you enjoyed the pics/blocks!!

This a great collection of photos from other quilt artists. I only have a few here. These are photos I collected for inspiration purposes only but I usually do my own thing when it comes to patterns. This is to give us all ideas! Aren't there great ideas here? Hope to see you post some creations you make or share photos of others' house blocks. Your quite welcome. :D :D
