Many times were spent there saying last goodbyes to friends and playmates. So in honor of The Little Blue Schoolhouse of my childhood:

you did great matching those lines...patience

I'm still working on mine. It faces the other direction but doesn't matter. Working on adding some steps then will post a picture.

Here is my school house. My mason on my chimney needs to be fired for putting the stones on sideways. Otherwise went together great. Thanks for choosing the block. Can't wait for the next one.

Finally getting around to May's house. I never did get to April I will have to work on that tomorrow. I was really busy in April making my daughter a prom dress - it was challenging. It was 100% silk and the pattern was re-worked I made major changes to the pattern...

First I would like to say how beautiful your daughter is & that dress is absolutely stunning on her. You really out did yourself on her project. Thank you so much for sharing with all of us.

I am so excited to see your School house block with all of your fabric selections!! :thumbup: I can hardly wait to see your quilt top when it's all done. Nice work.
:D :D :D :D
