Wonderful school house. I can see the joy those "children" had making those snowmen at recess!

Whew! Got it in under the line...again! Working on it for a few hours still want to make the tree a Magnolia tree will figure out how to get some pink flowers in those branches and some green leaves. The flag took me the longest...I'm no Betsy Ross!

Wow! I'm not usually a purple fan, but your fabrics are gorgeous and the block turned out beautifully. Have fun adding the flowers to the tree!

Your school house block is wonderful!! :thumbup: I love your color combination, it's really pretty. I hope you will share it with us again, when you have some of the pink flowers put on your tree. Nice work.
:D :D :D :D

I still need to stitch down the appliques that are just fused for now, and trim the block, but so far I like it best of all of them.
Well done, love it!

Here is my School House. My blocks are a little different. They are 12" blocks - I just made the houses 50% smaller. I have the Church and the farmhouse done also, hopefully will get them up tonight.
