little houses

 I don't have a finish of my own, but, I have a customer quilt finish. This is a quilt with swap blocks that 5 of us participated in a few years ago. As far as I know, Linda is the first to complete hers. It was such a fun swap. I like how she put it together. One of our swappers had a made a church that was twice the size of our 4 1/2 inch block. She put that in the center.


She put any leftover on the back I quilted an simple stipple so that the houses were the important part. I quilted leaves in the large border.


She made paper pieced blocks of trees for the borders.


we had some creative houses that I thoroughly enjoyed






Mine is not a top yet. I still love looking at all the fun blocks. Something new, will catch my eye every time I look at it.

ufo 2019 edition

Patchwork times has an ufo challenge for 2019. I have enjoyed using some sort of ufo motivation for my quilting these last couple of years. She suggested 12 of them. I am sure my One monthly goals will also use help finish these projects along.

A couple of years ago, my daughter and 3 other quilty friends exchanged houses every month. It had to be before I was blogging since I can't find any reference to them here on the blog.They were to finish at 4 inches but could be anything and any fabric. It will be fun to get them out and look at them.


2015 Allietare! - needs borders and so on
2013 celtic solstice just needs quilted


on ringo lake is in blocks and I have a corner pieced. Just 2 weeks ago, I moved my sewing cabinet and discovered sashing pieces behind it. I would have been beside myself, if I had not found these before working on it again. Even now, I worry that I will forget to get them back to the project box.


I did a second version of Grand illusion using Denise Schmidt  fabrics. I have it assembled minus the borders.


2016 En Provence civil war - needs quilted
lucy's basket  was another swap project with my daughter.
