I just got this pattern from Texas, I think. It is called Village and it is from Miss Rosie's patterns. I cannot check it right now but will when I am home again.

Your pattern is different. It only has one size houses, does not have the 4-patch houses, and it is rectangular. A nice pattern but not the one shown. The one she is looking for is Domiciles or the smaller version Baby Domiciles, by Aardvark Quilts.

The Domiciles quilt appears to have sew and flip corners (not Flying Geese) because some roofs have different slopes. I found the pattern for sale on Ebay. It also appears to be 6 inch blocks because it measures 48 across and has 8 house blocks. That would make really tiny houses in the 4-patches so I would make my blocks 8 or 10 inches and use less blocks.

Cut the corner squares a little less than 1/2 of the width of the rectangle.

I realize I was mistaken here: cut the corner squares slightly less than 1/2" larger than half the width of the block. This cut allows you to be sure to keep the point of the roof line. Sorry if I messed anyone up with previous measurement. I thought the block was squared off at the top when I posted the first time.

This is the route I would go.

Yes, measure the size of the finished block, divide that by 2 and add 1/2inch. In this case the rectangles are 5" finished, so 5 divide x 2=2 1/2 plus 1/2" = 3" squares to make snow ball corners. The rectangles are cut 5 1/2" x 6 1/2" and the side strips are cut 1" x 6 1/2" That is 48 x 60 with 8 blocks across x 10 down.
