Month 3--show small houses here
Use this Topic as the place to share your Small Houses. Once all 32 are done, your center will really start to come together.
Remember to ONLY sew the houses into pairs of TWO--next month you will add TREES to each pair BEFORE sewing all the houses into a complete circle.

Not sure if you found it. Learn Classes & Project on Purple bar and then select BOM on left bar. https://thequiltshow.com/learn/categ...color-my-world

I found and easy way to do the background pieces. I cut two 5.5x7.5 rectangles and placed them wrong side to wrong side . I then cut the angle on Barb's paper. The set on the right were for one house and the set on the left were for another house. This worked perfectly for both #1 and #2 house. I had a little waste and the background was pretty close to straight of grain. I will do the same for house #3 & #4

I have a question about house #3. What is the finished measurement of the block? Because I am adding an extra level to my houses they work out to be 11 1/4" vs 10 3/4" from the other houses.

Measure each pattern section, without seam allowances, add them together and add 1/2" seam allowance for the size of the houses when assembled. They are all the same size, or very close. Mine are about 11" tall.

my houses this month are coming out higher too. my one inch square used for size is one inch. I can't figure out what is wrong or what the finished size should be for all the houses 1,2 3, and 4

I had cheated and created my small houses 3 and 4 last week, using my own design for the windows and doors. Today I rearranged the houses after watching Barbara's video. She had commented that you didn't need to adhere to keeping the houses in order -- 1, 2, 3 4 -- so I ran with it! I've grouped the houses by family in four sections for myself and my three siblings. The houses my husband and I grew up in are at the top. My siblings homes and their/our kids homes are in each section, along with the other 'neighbors.' One of my favorite houses is my nephew's with his german shepherd, Ruby, in the front door. She's a big girl, but I managed to get her likeness in 3/4 of an inch!
Tomorrow I hope to start attaching the houses to the wholecloth linen background. Having so much fun with this project!Carole Berry
