Building a House


This month, each member of the Elgin Piecemakers will be making a house block for our charity chemo quilt. I built my house tonight using a liberated method--no pattern. I looked over some ideas from Gwen Marston's Liberated Quiltmaking book and then made my block. I would love to just sit and make a bunch of these house blocks.  This one is 12.5" square.  I had so much fun making the house block that I decided to make a tree to go beside it...


I may make an evergreen tree too sometime...

I can't wait to see everyone else's house blocks at our meeting later this week!



I have been doing some big stitch quilting on the snowman runner...

I think it is coming along nicely!

Until next time...
