    Hi, I finished both sets 1 & 2 Houses. They were fun. I'll be excited to see next month's pattern. I had already been familiar with the freezer paper piecing--which helped, I'm sure. I look forward to seeing all of your pictures!

              Amen to that! Having used #37 for 1/4" seams -- I think the #10 is wonderful!

                PattiMack I did a double take when I saw your houses - exactly the same background as me with solids! What are the chances?

                    Finally able to start stitching my wool felt houses after picking up 2 dozen yummy colors of Valdani thread. Some solid colors and lots of variegated.

                    These are my first two houses. Since I can’t stitch these to my TBD whole cloth linen background until after the compass is done, perhaps later, I’m limited to basically doing doors and windows. Lots of fun embellishment to come. The house on the left is my childhood home. Hoping to add the flowering crabapple tree in our front yard.

                        'nhbaskets' these are just WONDERFUL!!! Thanks for sharing the thread photos, too. A small wool version is going to have to be in my future--really love what you are doing!

                          OK so I SINCERELY tried this method but I guess it's too delicate for me, so I made up my own house block so I can still play along some. Fused the windows but the rest is pieced and the plan is to heavily embelish each house with decorative stitching etc. The fabrics are Tula Pink's handmade.

                              The 16 small houses for January done... BOM 2021 going to be great fun


                              I put snow on one roof - will do the snow differently once the houses are joined - or forget it altogether as I’m having different ideas on how to make this my own B)
                              Lotti, Love the snow on the roof. I have been without power since last Tues. night due to a wind storm that brought down a lot of huge trees in North Idaho. No sewing, but
                              I have been making applique houses instead. Decided I was going to do the quilt applique. Was thinking I should put a tree laying on top of the house. There are so many
                              houses that were hit by trees. Like a disaster zone. Hopefully it won't we long before the power is back on and I can turn my sewing machine on again. Got the internet up with a generator. HelenW
