    Christmas houses

    I have enjoyed making the paper pieced houses so far I've done 12.There is some bling to add yet and also sashing.
    Also here is a paper pieced 12 1/2" square I made some years ago, it was in the Fons and Porter magazine and is one of Carol Doaks designs.
    I can't remember if I sewed it by hand or on the machine (Senior moment) it's a good way of using up scraps.

    Anne they are gorgeous! I love that you have used dark fabric as the background, it really makes them stand out well. And the little quilt is adorable too.

        I really like your house, Anne, can't wait to see the bling added. By the way, how did you make the wreath?

          Thanks for all your nice comments.
          Renata, I had some Christmassy fabric with a very small pattern on it. When you print out the pattern the wreath is in the pattern I just copied it onto Steam-a-Seam and stuck it down I just happened to have the red bow from somewhere and sewed it on.
          Thanks again

            Those houses look fun. Will you be adding constellations to the final thing? I always like looking for Orion, Cassiopeia and the 'Saucepan' (also know as the Big Dipper/Plough)

              So cute! I love the dot fabric - makes it look like it is snowing behind the house.

                          I hope this works

                          This is something I made from scraps it measures 12 inches square.
                          I'm trying to attach the picture of the mug rug that Lorchen sent me.
                          Will try again later

                              Anne, I love the stripey binding! Perfect with your multicolor squares.
