White Pine, Yup that's it I was just looking it up for you. Thank you for your kind words.

Nicky,
WOW!! :D I am amazed at how gorgeous your quilt turned out to be. You have done an AWESOME job making it. I also hope you win a ribbon or prize at the quilt shows. You will have to share with us when you are all done. You have been such an inspiration to all of us who have followed through with the House BOM for 2011. I applaud you & thank you for making this turn out to be the best ever!!
:D :D :D :D

Cheryl, thank you for your very kind words. I am excited to see it in the shows; I have no expectations of winning anything; I just want to see it hanging, and take some good photos of it!! Thank you for hosting the 2011 Houses BOM. It was my first experience with paper piecing, and that is now my favorite technique. You are always so kind and encouraging to your fellow quilters!

Here is a photo of my finished quilt. I waited until the Sonora show so I could get a good photo of it. As it turned out the lighting was not very good so the pic is not great either! But I am so glad this one is finished!

Nicky, you did a wonderful job on your quilt...it is beautiful!

It is so fun. Can't wait to see your finished quilt!!

This is so cute!

Nicky, I just love your quilt. Every time I look at it I see something different. This time I saw the block with the sunset over water. Beautiful.

That is absolutely beautiful and sooo creative! I'm posting a picture of mine today (I hope) Just finished yesterday.

[ATTACH=CONFIG]364190[/ATTACH]Finished my 2011 House BOM! Yay!!!!

KSenn, congratulations on finishing! Your quilt is adorable, and the red border really ties it all together.

Thank you Sue! I had fun making it, and searching for patterns! I like the sunset one too.

Oh Nicky..........Your quilt turned out amazingly GORGEOUS!! :D I can't thank you enough for sharing your finished project picture, with all of us. You would have to wait, to share your picture until I was out of town!! :D I Love it & I am so proud of all of your work & support during the 2011 House BOM block project. You certainly have a forever treasure there. ENJOY!!
:D :D :D :D

KSenn...........WOW, your House quilt for 2011 has turned out just as gorgeous as the other's. It couldn't be any nicer & I thank you so much for sharing your finished picture with all of the rest of us. I have to say that the year of 2011 was my most favorite BOM pattern's. I must get busy now & get mine put together. You girls are such an inspiration to me & all of the other's.
:D :D :D :D

KSenn, Love your neighborhood! So creative with all those different ways to use blocks. I like the red border too. Great job. This was such a fun BOM to do. My favorite too, SulaBug (even though I've only done a few).

Wow..another stunning quilt!!

It is so fun to see these wonderful completed quilts. Fantastic!

Yes Jeanine, it is so fun to see these finished & completed quilts. I am ashamed to say that I don't have mine put together yet, but I am promising myself that starting in January this will be my primary goal to get it put together. I am just as anxious to see mine all done, as I am seeing the other's that have finished their's!!
:D :D :D :D

Oh Wow, i hadn't checked this thread of messages in a while..... Fantastic! great job, i have 5 houses done, one day I will get back to it, lost interest, hate piecing-lol but yet i am working a crazy quilt, go figure. Thanks again for sharing.

I too am not done with mine. I have the blocks together but am still applique ing my border. Perhaps another year. But it is so inspirational seeing the others.

Hi Jeanine, I'm over in Sequim. Happy Rainy Day!

Hi Whitepine. It is a great rainy day, even here in Sequim. I love green trees, so I had better love rain!

Hi Girls...........I'am over here in Yakima & it's a great rainy day here too!! Good day for sewing, don't you think?
:D :D :D :D

I agree with you SulaBug, But, drat, my boss doesn't.

Of all the nerve, what on earth is your Boss thinking? :D There must be sewing time, so one can think straight enough to do one's job!! PS: You might not want to mention that I said that!! LOL
:D :D :D :D

And I thought yesterday was rainy!!! Definitely a sewing day. SulaBug...Why are you at the North Pole? Just wondering if you are visiting Alaska.

lol...he he...darn bosses!

I am at the North Pole helping Santa with the mailing of all of the Secret Santa packages for the Secret Santa swap this year!! Someone has to do it, so I just had to volunteer!!
:D :D :D :D

Hi Jeanine, We would love to see an "almost finished" if you want to.

It's not a great picture, hanging on my drapes with poor lighting, but it gives the idea. I have the bottom border ready to stitch on but, silly me, I need to do the other side first!

Oh my Goodness Jeanine, your House quilt is turning out just gorgeous!! :D I love the way you have set your blocks & then put them together. You have certainly made yourself a treasure there. I am so proud of you & your quilt. Thank you ever so much for sharing your picture with all of us here on the Quilting Board. ENJOY!!
:D :D :D :D

What a beautiful quilt, Jeanine. Your interpretation of our 'buildings year' is so unique and fun.
