Yes, it does look fairly simple. Having the pattern would give you the preparation you would need to cut the pieces though. Since it doesn't look as if anyone can find the pattern yet, I counted the strips and starting with the first little box and continuing counting to the end of the "cabin", there are 19 pieces. (I THINK. I am looking at the picture and am trying to count correctly.) The smaller cabin looks as if it has 10 pieces. I would guess the exact size of each strip is up to the quilter...wider,larger.....thinner, smaller. It starts with a small dark, a small light, a light strip, then the usual two darks, two lights. PLEASE don't take my word for it! Try to count it out and if you try it, I hope it works. I think I will try it after I do the two quilts I am currently working on. Thanks for reminding me it is basic. It should be a terriffic project and I will try it...later!!!!LOL!!! :lol:
