These little house blocks are fun to make! As you can see, I have made a couple of sizes and expect to make more. The six inch blocks are quite simple after making the three inch. I plan to mix and match them in my quilt. Hey, at three a week - I could still make 156!
The most fun part is not thinking too hard on the fabrics. Now you can see I did put up some brick fabric for a house and found a quilter for the window, but mostly I'm just grabbing scraps, quickly making decisions and sewing. Improvisational color selection. For more houses, go to Building Houses from Scraps.
I just love the bright colors. The size difference is nice too. You know you could make a small quilt with only 366 pieces in it and then be done with it.. just a thought
ReplyDeleteLovely colours and very liberated.
ReplyDeleteI've made 3 of those little houses that will finish at 3 inches, and I've been thinking the same as you. I could put some 3, 6, and 9 in the same quilt. Love your blocks!
