    I was inspired by this board when n2scraplvr posted some pics on house blocks. I have been wanting to make a house quilt and seeing her numerous blocks got me motivated. So here is what I ended up doing. The blocks are from a book called Stitch and Split Applique by Jayme Crow and Joan Segna. I put a different spin on the colouring. It is meant to be quirky and not perfect. I just need to add the boarders now but wanted to thank this board for inspiring people sharing so thought I better share in return. The photo colours aren't the best I'm afraid but best I could do for now. The ones that look orange are actually shocking pinks.
