Hey, that is exactly the look I wanted to go for!! :thumbup: I remember having to use the outdoor toilet, when I was a young girl. My grand children, now a days, can't even imagine it. Thank you so much for sharing your picture.
:D :D :D :D

i love yours though!!

Jacquie,
Your light box idea sounds like it would work out great. I don't have a light box & this was the first time I have tried a Pattern like this. I did find it really easy. I just cut out all of the pieces like the list shows & laid them out, making the block. From there it was easy to sew them together. I hope everyone has a great time making this block!!
:D :D :D :D

You did a great job! I think these are going to be the best looking outhouses we've ever seen!

Sulabug and Jacquie, your blocks are adorable! I've been out of town and hadn't seen this month's block yet...can't wait to get started, but two grandchildren somehow got in my suitcase and I have them for a week or so... :):)...but soon!

Sulabug...That is a great pattern. Love your interpretation. Did you do it according to the directions or did you try to PP it?
Am looking forward to gettting back to making my houses...I am W-A-Y- behind. We had to leave home in February when I had started on the farmhouse and stayed with my DMIL to care for her until she passed away. Got back home the end of May and moved the first of June. Finally beginning to get back to quilting. Will post my pics when ever I finally get caught up!
