:roll: Wouldn't or couldn't that include, oriental houses or of other cultures? Stars could even tie in there somehow to make everyone happy! Heck I don't know, my imagination runs away with me at times. Sorry.:lol:

I'm all for houses. I've been wanting to make one for a long time and this will help me get it done.

I liked the idea of a town square idea with different building in the town around it but now I also love the idea of houses from different regions and countries. Now I want to do a quilt in both styles!

There ya go! You said what I was thinking but the words wouldn't come! But yes thats exactly what I was trying to say, An International flare, houses but with accents from around the world! :thumbup:

England...Castles? Celtic Crosses...a mixture of it all as long as it's International? I do like your list. Thanks!
