    Adorable. A lot of us remember what it was like to just go into your little house and close the world out for a while. I bet that they will love getting mail out of the mailbox from grandma. You did a super job. BrendaK

    Love it! I had one as a child that my mom made out of muslin and stitched a door and window, etc. on it. Fun memories!

    The entire playhouse is made with denim. I pinned the main fabric on my longarm and laid the green fabric on top and quilted the grass and flower stems. I then cut away the extra green fabric. Then I laid the flowers (fussy cut) on and quilted them down. And that was the beginning. :-) In this photo, the flowers are now sewn down yet.

    Forgot to say I used the foam stabilizer/interfacing on the brown of the door and the pink windows.
