A Quilters Cove - January House Blues II

 So January is finished and it's time to share our first house.  I made mine in blues to correspond with Angela's Rainbow Scrap Challenge. I added charming little elements to my first house.  I top stitched them all down raw edge style.  The background piece has a layer of  thin interfacing  This type of designing is a bit beyond my artistic talent.  I am enjoying the challenge for a change of methods. My project will showcase different house designs in different size blocks.  Why keep it simple ?



During my internet travels, I came across this page which offers 6 free house patterns and want to share the link with you, just in case you need more options.

Have you made a house block yet?  Andree is our Linky Party hostess.  I hope you will share your creation there so we can all see your awesome designs.  Maybe you will consider following Andree so you can get notice to the linky parties when they are first released.  Here is the link for January

Quilting & Learning - What a Combo!

I am also collecting the specific posts for this quilt along on my "A Quilters Cove" page.  This can be a resource to look back on our works.  If you would like any of your direct links shared on this page, please email me and I will be so happy to include it in our listing.  This page will also have links to the linky parties.

  1. Your house is so fun to look at, Kat! I love how you've added birds- and a cat? And a fence, too - now you've got me thinking! I'm ready to work on a February house.
