    OK...I have picked out my fabric for the Funky Town blocks, but the Red, White and Blue is due first. So, I gotta get them done so I can build my houses and stop singing that stupid song y'all put in my head.

    Well, I just had to go and make my first funky house today. It's kinda plain, but a good start. This is 9x9, and I didn't bother to measure anything until I got to the background fabric. Easy peasy! Oh and I'm challenging myself to only use scraps for these, so each one will be different.

    Very cute!! Aren't these guys fun??? No measuring needed, you just add all the pieces and voila a house! :) Thanks for sharing your pic, can't wait to see more.

    That's why I'm making 7 of each of the sets I make. It's my first too so I know just how excited you are.
