the house has twelve seems across, left to right and to make all the houses with different material, They did not turn out all the same so I had to square them up before I put them together. It's paper pieced so one would think they would all end up exactly the same size but they didn't in my world. I'm just glad the quilt was going to a non-sewing guy.
