Ring of small houses—show yours here

[Barbara B.]

One of my local students, Evelyn S, came to class this week with her Small House Ring all together. Such pretty colors and so different from the original.

Being from Down Under I decided to do things a little differently and give my trees a more natural look. Pretty happy with the result and the ring size works too. Yeah!

I almost did my trees like you did but decided to showcase the different fabrics for all the trees.

[Kathleen H.]

Love your trees!

[Barbara B.]

All the houses look wonderful. I am wondering, did you press seams open on all the seams when putting the houses together in pairs and then into the circle?

Yes, that is the recommendation.

Still a little fullness to my inner ring even after tightening some seams. Hopefully I can ease in.

[Helen W.]

Josephine, You might want to wait until you get the inside road done to decide you need to tighten up
the fullness. It might fit perfectly when you stitch it to the ring. You will know when you pin the road circle. HelenW

Thank you Carole B.❤ Thanks Cindy and Helen for all for your suggestions.

Love your mariner’s compass! It is very dramatic. Can’t wait to see the roads finished.

I’ve finished my trees and now have the pairs all sewn together in a circle. It seemed like it was flat on the outer circumference but a wee bit wavy on the inner circle. I just spritzed/misted that area with water and they have laid down now!

I’ve never assembled a quilt like this, it’s exciting & kinda nerve racking at the same time. My trees are doing their own haphazard thing but hopefully it’ll all come together nicely.

Just LOVE your trees - very clever!

[Josephine G.]

I love the trees - very original.

[Valerie C.]

love your trees and the different colored trunks!

[Jeneen C.]

All the first 32 houses are finished.... This is first quick pic. Thank you, Wendy, Barbara, Alex, and The Quilt Show for taking me on this journey. I am loving this quilt. So much fun to make.

[Barb P.]

Couldn't do the plain black tree trunks. Couldn't do the plain green trees. Just like I couldn't do the houses with plain fabric. I am really happy with the way they turned out.

[Barb P.]

Barbara, I'm having trouble viewing my photos. What am I doing wrong?

Well after a lot of seam adjustments, my "ring" is almost flat - may need some more adjusting, but not today. I am loving this quilt.

[Josephine G.]

Very nice tree fabric !

[Nancy Lee.]

Caught up and ready for roads! Thanks to @chuckndash for the idea to add stripes to the Mariner's Compass.

[Kathleen H.]

month 4 complete!

my little houses waiting for trees..... and here they are. I didn't want just solid greens for my trees so I chose a modern-looking tree printed fabric

[Patricia B.]

Out of all the BOM’s I’ve done this one comes in at Number 1. It is fun to make! All the houses were so enjoyable. I made them one at a time so I could choose all the individual colours. Like I said, sooooo much fun!. Thank you.

[Sigrid A.]

I finished my ring of.houses. And yes, it was so much fun.
