Searching for this block!

I found this block on pinterest. I tracked it back to the lady who made it. She said she found it in an old Quilters Newsletter magazine, but can't find the magazine. Does anyone here have any info on it? I would love to make it and just need to find the source. Thank you!

please post again when you find out more about it?

I too like the block. It opens up possibilities for creating other similar blocks. Ok, people who use EQ7 and design PP blocks what do you think? Can you come up with something?

I am wondering if the house part of the block isn't pieced in a regular square block and then cut into segments with a degree ruler. It is then set into a sort of Drunkard Path block. Anyone have a house block laying around to try it?

It looks like it could be paper pieced to me.

OK.......I found that picture I think on pinterest and it leads to a lady by the name of Chris Jurd. She has a blog but I couldn't find that picture; I looked at it going back to July 2012 and then I got a cramp in my thumb
