Checked my Star payments: In Dec, I pd the 6 month fee x2, for $19.00 each time; each with a notation on the page, but the Annual Star membership was only pd through Sept '21. So I bought another Annual Star membership, with receipt.
Am I 2 star member or how does the pd twice for the 6 month membership affect all of this?.
I logged out, then back in & was able to find the patterns; thanks!

Beginnings are difficult!
Under cuttings, the pattern suggests cutting the recurring sizes of each of our colors and placing them in a basket.
Your suggestion was to cut 3.5 inch strip of each color.
I like your idea but do we then cut lots of little pieces or just what we need for that house in that color.
I saw you had a tray with a bunch of strips on it.
Beginnings and staying organized are difficult!

On my little design board I lay out all the cut pieces for one house. A paper plate is a good idea too. Just find a way that keeps the cut pieces ready to use and easy to identify..

From the first time I saw this pattern, my thought was what a great wall hanging. Like many others I was thinking make it smaller. 60% seemed about right to me.
I have been doing samples. I thought sample 1 just do paper piecing at 60%. I bought flannel, so it is thick to do with those little windows and sections between the windows.
Then I thought, I am not opposed to raw edge applique, so Made sample 2. Then I read about quilters thinking of doing wool applique, so sample 3 applique on wedge that
could be pieced. Need to slow down, so I think will spend the weekend working on last years BOM. This new years resolution was to get than done!!! Having fun, and love
the EXPLOSION of activity on The Quilt Show. Hope Wendy is looking in every now and then to see how wildly popular her pattern is. HelenW

Hi Helen W.
I also have a habit of hanging patterns, but I do want this to be a stash busting quilt
I love colour but need to control things too, so I’ve made my 8 small No1 houses but I’ve made them in one piece of fabric so that I can bond my own windows and doors. Maybe put blinds in the windows? All my roofs will be dark grey fabrics, perhaps with the odd chimney pot,
but these I have pieced using the freezer paper method.
I used my open toe foot to stitch next to the freezer paper but will try my stitch in the ditch foot for the houses No 2.
