Awesome House Quilt


This incredible house quilt is from the Netherlands. It was featured on Quilts Thema. The sashing is full of trees. Wowzers!

  1. OMG! I have one of these started. I have about 45 houses arrranged in 3 house x 3 house blocks. Well, maybe I have more because I have about 6 or 8 blocks plus more houses waiting. Not enough to do a quilt. The idea behind them was to make one a day for a year. the house in the center would be a 9 x9 block single house that would anchor the whole group.

    The girl who designed the 3 inch x 3 inch house block put out a stamp that gave you the pieces to cut. I was paper piecing but most people were hand sewing them.

    They are incredible! I have mine in a box and on my UFO list to finish one day!

  2. I'd love to get the paper piecing pattern for the trees block. I've got lots of the houses done.

  5. I know a gal in Norway who had instructions on her blog for little paper pieced houses like this. Blog is http://hannequilt.blogspot.no. Don't know if she would have any idea who this quilt was done by, if it's connected, etc.
