Three Houses From Tamera

Hello, ladies. I haven't played in a few months, but I'm going to play this month.

These houses were a little harder than I thought at first, but after the first one, I read Tonya's instructions and then they got MUCH easier, lol.

Here are three houses to at to the mix, and I'm hoping to make some more.


I'll have to make some with chimneys next.

My Rose Garden is Growing

I have received 5 more lovely rose blocks - 3 from Janet S and 2 from Gail. Thank you both.

The Last Asterisks

I received three asterisks from Kristen (or was it Kirsten?).. so I have now received all 48 blocks. They are fabulous! No quilt made, but I'll post a picture when it is done. Thanks, everyone.

Sept 2010 Liberated Houses


Nine liberated houses completed this month, they got a little more wonky as I got used to making them. They are fun to make and everyones will make a really fun neighborhood. They will be great for the winners.

More roses received from Canada and UK

Can I just tell you I LOVE getting mail.  And it's even more exciting when it arrives from international locations.

Beautiful, beautiful blocks from Coralie and Helen arrived today.  Thank you so much!

3 more houses


I had fun with these! I threw in a modern one, just for a fun it. I think I'm not naturally a wonky quilter, so it's a little hard for me to set my houses off kilter. Ginny

Rose block mailed this morning

Wendy, my rose block is headed your way.  Sorry I was a little late, its been crazy around here!  Sound like a great plan for the blocks!

Melissa

Blocks received!

It's so exciting to go to my mailbox!

I've received:
3 beautiful blocks from Kim
2 beautiful blocks from Julie
3 beautiful blocks from Laura
and
4 beautiful blocks from Balinda.

I have a plan for my blocks.  It's a good one.  Want to hear?

The day I found out I won, I also found out that my beloved neighbor is battling cancer.  I adore my neighbor.  She's in the same generation as my parents, and she has been a good friend and support to me and my little family.

And so most of the roses you wonderful quilters crafted will be going into a get-well quilt for my sweet Carol.  I'm going to piece it together as quick as I can so that I can get busy quilting it for her.

Thank you so much for your work and your time!

3 roses have arrived in NZ

Where did August go?

I seem to have missed August. Life just got too busy and there has been no time for sewing. September is not looking much better, but gosh those houses are cute! Mom is mostly moved now, but now I have surgery scheduled for Sept. 15 and must make myself a couple of dresses before then because I don't think I'll want to wear anything binding around my middle for a while after surgery (removal and biopsy of my right adrenal gland/mass). Maybe I can manage a few houses before my surgery...or maybe after...this type of construction shouldn't be too strenuous...not like the 10 day total kitchen remodel we did for Mom last month!

Liberated Houses




Here are my houses for september hope they are ok Janet R.
