I started playing again with 28 blocks of assorted blues, browns and red background  blocks. What to do with these blocks, I wonder aloud.

But anyway, she's now been asked to create her first line of fabrics and recently she posted this totally cute "House" quilt and now, she is doing a quilt along for this little quilt.  I have had the 'house' block on my Quilting Bucket List for quite sometime and I thought, oh what the heck, its what I do, lots of quilting!
