Thank you all for the encouragement and ideas! I put the project on hold the past few days while I tried to do some computer troubleshooting, and I am so glad I did. Thanks to this thread, I have some fresh ideas, and am really looking forward to incorporating some of them into my project!
I'll be sure to post pics when I make some progress!

It just sits over the machine.

What a great idea - then you could decorate for the seasons? I can see this becoming an ongoing piece of art!

Thanks for posting - now I have to make one too ;o)
What fabulous ideas! I was debating on whether i should hand applique or use fusible web to attach the doors and windows, but this will be so much more fun.
