Thank you WhitePine, that is all the encouragement I needed! Will post it as soon as I get home from Sacramento. We watched the Sacramento Mile last night.

I have finally finished my 2011 blocks! Yea! I changed October's block to something that I could paper piece, although I did love that selection, but just didn't want to do any applique...lazy me! I will put flying geese and other blocks for dividers and such and hopefully get the top finished soon...my DH loves these blocks more than others I've made, so guess I'll have to finish it up and give it to him! Thanks for looking!


Ronda your house blocks are beautiful. Makes me want to pull mine out of the UFO box and work on them. :) Though I already have enough on my plate so those blocks will have to wait a little longer. :)

I don't usually like to post unfinished quilts, but since you insist, Whitepine, here is a photo of my Virtual Houses quilt! The real thing, entitled "Gimme Shelter" is at the LAQ right now.

OMG, Nicky, that's amazing! So creative. Can't wait to see the finished quilt. OK now I'm embarrassed to post mine but here's the simple version of the blocks. I still have another border to put on.

Goodness, Whitepine, why would you be embarassed? Yours is beautiful! I love how you did the cornerstones in different colors as well as the border. It's finished and I love it.

whitepine although each is different in its own way they are both equally amazing. i love it. again i can't imagine doing something like that. maybe once i learn how to paper piece i will reconsider but in the meantime its truly beautiful. rachelle

Whitepine: your's is so bright and cheerful. It will be sooo loved. The lights in the windows look so inviting. A home town. What is the other border you'll be putting on?
