    Default Circle house quilt-looking for pattern

    A few months ago I saw a circle house quilt in a magazine, not sure which magazine it was in, and was wondering if anyone knows of it and can give me any information on its name or pattern details. I just love house quilts and would like to make some.

    Can you describe it? I'm not sure I understand what a circle house quilt is. Is it a round quilt? Does it have circular houses appliqued on it?

    The quilt was round with houses around it. It may have also been a Xmas tree skirt but don't recall a hole in the middle of it.

    There are two ladies from Japan that made quilts in neutral colors, and I know one of them made a quilt with houses on the edge all around a circle quilt. It had a beige background? (I just saw it a month or two ago online and think I saved an image, but can't find at the moment.) One lady's name is Yoko Saito, and cannot remember the other lady's name, but I know she had a series of monthly blocks in a French magazine that was being sold at Road to CA in January. The blocks were similar to Sunbonnet Sue kids. Maybe this info will jar someone's memory and they know her name.

    Found the one by Yoko Saito (but not the one I was thinking of). http://www.pinterest.com/pin/272327108691605094/

    I also googled quilts with houses and there are quite a few with houses in circles, and just some very interesting quilts with houses on them.

    Last one: Found the one with the houses on the outside border. Love her quilts. Aren't her Sunbonnet Kids cute?
