Go right ahead & use my idea's all you want. That's the fun part of sharing our block pictures with everyone. We may even get a different idea by looking at someone else's idea, so GO FOR IT!!
:D :D :D :D

DH actually made a rope swing on the oak tree in my front yard for grandkids. I was planning to make one for my block but you quickly changed my mind. LOL Front of my house is very similar to block. Excuse the mess -we're on year 4 of rebuilding DH's childhood home with lots of outside painting left to complete.

I just set up the "2011 FARM HOUSE" slide show so we can watch as we go this month. I will check each day for new pictures, but if I accidently miss one, please let me know and I will add it in. We are getting more creative, so should be a lot of fun seeing them all.

Below is my translation of a Farmhouse...Allot of animals taking over the place on a stormy day. Always wanted to live on a farm and have a hse just like this cats and all....

Love, love, love your block. Especially the calf. You all have raised the bar sooooooooo high! I have been working on mine today for about 5 hours and haven't even got 1/2 of it done. I think I have sewn and UNsewn each piece at least twice and a lot of them 3 times. This PP stuff is really, really time consuming. LOL

Got to quit looking at all the great blocks or I will be afraid to post mine....

Suggestion: I put my machine on bast or largest stitch 6.0 just to make sure all lined up and looks ok then I just resew right over the bast stitch if OK...If not so easy to pull the basting stitch out...
