Absolutely inspiring - I love the way it uses different houses AND different seasons! I would never be able to let any have that one!

Thanks for the link! Boy I wish more patterns were able to be downloaded instead of copying and pasting into a word document. Sigh. It's free so I guess I should shut up..... LOL

Congats on finishing your quilt. It's a really cute one.

Ashamed to say back in 2000. I was just learning to quilt and faithfully listening to Simply Quilts on HGTV. So I got the pattern from HGTV intenet. Called Round the Block. The fusible web was way too stiff but surprisingly, that washed out when I washed the quilt. I embelished the quilt with ribbon for the maypole, some buttons for doorknobs and I found snowflake buttons for the winter sky. I also found soe faces and put a few in some of the windows of the houses.

I don't know what I'm doing to download. I did learn that I had to resize the pic.
I wanted to show everyone the pics from the Grand Rapids Quilt show. I took over 250 pics but stuck with how to download. I keep getting an error message and think I need to resize them all??If you know, please guide me. Those quilts were fantastic, superior, awesome!!!

Think I also have this pattern, glad to see someone made one - maybe someday I'll use some of the bits and pieces in the stash and make it too. Great job!

Wasn't it fun looking for all those fabrics? I'll have to show pic. of mine soon.

I used to have a JoAnns not far from me and the pattern had all the fabrics selected so I found them all w/o problems. Now I have moved to Charleston area and no JoAnn's unless I drive to Columbia. We do have hancocks but not the same.

You guys are wonderful! I cannot compare my work to what you have shown here. I am all puffed up but do not feel deserving. Thank you.
