You can make a dog house by using a tiny dog print fabric for your door. You can make a Santa house, a monkey house, a turkey house, anything. By the time you master it, you'll want to make bunches of houses, so do it.

This quilt will remind me it is winter. Google "First Snow quilt" on line. It was a free pattern, not sure about now since the quilt along is finished as of the end of October.

I am doing one too. Have the houses done and only 6 trees.
Church bazaar got in the way and had to finish a quilt for that. It is fun, isn't it?

Jan that fabric looks so familiar to me. I thought maybe it was a Charley Harper print but I looked and didn't find it. I will look as I shop this weekend. I swear I have seen it somewhere. I love all of the house quilts.

I agree with Jan! That fabric does make that quilt. Too bad it's flannel. My finished houses are 100% cotton.

What material is row by row license plates? Every time I job travel I could make a block.

I emailed the shop where the tree and house quilt came from. I found it on Pinterest, located the shop, and emailed them.

Is the fabric by Timeless Treasures? Also Hoffman has a red bird and birch tree with the redbird quite similar to these birds.

Those houses are alot like mine. I've decided when I job travel, to get FQ's or charm packs of everywhere I go. I'm gone at 4 weeks at a time usually. I can't machine sew, but I can take double sided interfacing, rotary cutter, mat, and needlework supplies. I always have needlework supplies with me. I found row by row. There's a quilt shop near where I'm going tomorrow. I'm stopping in to see if they have any license plates.
