Hi Shirley! Glad you enjoyed the quilt show!! haha! What a great idea for home buyers!! The "cat house" was from a post by "susiequilt." Just click on her name and send her a PM. She'll be glad to help you. If you still can't find the pattern, let me know, I'll make you one. :D :D

Goodness, so many houses .. are any for rent or for sale ! they are all so imaginative, quite a collection. Thanks for showing them to us.

Love your neighborhood. All the houses are so neat.
Please share photos when you do Rainbow Row. I have painted Rainbow Row many times, had never thought about
doing a quilt.

Let's pick one out to move into!! I love the fairytale land of the one in the forest with the lace fence! If it just didn't look so cold and snowy in it, I would move in! haha. Thank you for looking and enjoying!
:D :D

I've never really had a thing for house blocks before, but now I think I want some!

Thanks for sharing this wonderful tour of your
"real estate!"
I, too, think these would make wonderful gifts for homebuyers from either the real estate agency or the title company that does the closing, as I have worked for both.
Soooo enjoyable!

I absolutely love those houses in South Carolina! The second picture is of the shutters and the flowerboxes which I totally love and my mini will be called "Shutters and Flowerboxes" and it will be 3-D. Have been wanting to do these minis since last summer but got so sidetracked when I joined the board in August that I never did get around to them. I am a florist also so this will be right up my alley doing the flowerboxes in 3D. Will PM you at the time I post so you don't miss it. Thank you, sewgull!

Thanks so much. They are all wonderful. I am going to start my collection. Cannt wait. Barb

Thank you for sharing your beautiful quilts. I love the house block but haven't really made any. Our mini group took pictures of all our homes (where we take turns meeting twice a month). So now I have pictures of everyone's house and a picture of all our group. I am having a hard time coming up with ideas for how to include them all in. Your quilts have inspired me.

I'm so tickled you're inspired! It will be interesting to see what you come up for the group collage of everyone's house - kind of like the last photo's placement of houses? Random order maybe? We know it'll look great! Be sure and post when you have completed the project. We would love to see it!!

:D :D

Thanks, Sheila!! I love the one from Germany and lived there for almost 2 yrs. I lived in an all-German neighborhood with no Americans so I had to learn to speak German. I was in Maintz on the Rhine not too far from Frankfurt.
