I have a wee teeny tiny little collection of holiday fabrics (insert eyes looking to the heavens…) So I got out the crate.. tub... um.. I mean little box of them … and used a piece of my Santa fabric for the window! I'm going to start looking for darling prints to add in!
We are on Block #4.. below is the download & link to my project page with ALL the blocks
TRUE CONFESSION.. this is 'Try #2' as 'Try #1' didn't quite make it.. want to see?
When I made this block I didn't think about how using a different fabric at the bottom would create an entirely new look. It makes the house short. I put it on my design wall for awhile and it bugged me.
So I had a date with Jack, Jack the Ripper, and fixed it up! Don't you think it's better on the one above it?

Small projects and lap quilts as I a newbie to quilting.
Sewing baby quilts for grandchildren, relatives and silent auctions for fundraisers has kept me busy lately. I like to shop clearance spots in quilt stores for a variety of fabric to go with panels I have on hand. I also love the blue color in the fabric you are giving away.
I make bed size quilts for the grandchildren. But I make Child size blankets for Project Linus!! As long as I am making quilts I am happy!
I make whatever size calls to me that day. Love the blues in your collection and the Be My Neughbor blocks. They remind me of Mr Rodgers who always sang ‘Won’t you be my neighbour?’
I have been making small, baby blankets since I’m a beginner. But I’m working my way up to larger sizes.
Love, love the blue fabrics!. I make all sizes of quilts! I sometimes get bored while making a bed-size quilt, so I take a break, make a couple of smaller things and relax a bit. Then I finish the big project, tackle a throw or another bed-size quilt. Always sewing….
These neighbor blocks are so awesome! I enjoyed looking through them all. I make an assortment of different sizes, but seldom anything bigger than a twin.
I like to make lap quilts and some bed size quilts when needed.
I like to do a variety of them all.
When I make a quilt I like to make it BIG. I would much rather make a bed sized quilt than a small one. The only small quilts I make are baby quilt.
I make mostly lap quilts and the occasional baby quilt. Quilted crafts now too: crib rail covers, suck pads for baby carriers, Christmas stockings, placemats, etc. I have a king size quilt looming in my future that fills me with a certain degree of dread. This Canadian from BC would love to win a giveaway, too! Thanks for the opportunity.
Yes, I love give-a-ways. I mostly make lap quilts and some times when I need a break I like to make a table runner or wall hanging. Thanks for the fun.
I’ve made mostly bed quilts in the past – all of them seem to be King or Queen size, but I have a zillion small projects I really want to tackle this winter.
Love getting your newsletter/updates.
I like to make a variety of them all.
I have made a few queen size plus, one being the Solstice quilt. I have also made numbers of lap quilts and am mostly doing those and baby at this time. Thanks for your patterns.
I usually do small projects like table runners as gifts, but I’ve made a couple quilts. I made a baby quilt when I was in high school for a friend. I also made a queen size quilt for my father and his new wife as a wedding gift.
I love small and medium art quilts but I’m almost done with my first twin for my granddaughter. All I have left to do is freem motion quilting ! I’m a newby.
Pick Me! PLease
I have been quilting for a few years – started after I retired. One of the items I have not made myself is a table runner. These colors would be perfect in my kitchen or a gift. I am making a few Christmas runners for presents, again none for myself. Maybe this would be a great time to make myself something. 🙂
I would be honored to get this!
Wow! Great giveaways, especially in the aqua I’m collecting.
Great blocks, and a wonderful giveaway! For myself, I make more lap and larger quilts. Thank you for the opportunity.
I like to go a variety of them all!
I create a lot of table topper. At this time of the year, I start lap quilt for gifts.
I love small quilts that I can put on different tables, chairs, small quilt racks around the house. It makes it look cozy and will decorated. Of course I have many other larger quilts, but the small one make me happy to look at.
darn the luck my comment disappeared. I love mini and small quilts and that is what I have been concentrating on for the past year. Your house blocks are so lovely, I have had a mini house quilt on my to do list for some time now. I guess I should get to it. Who ever is luck enough to win your great give away will be thrilled.

Mostly bed quilts
I mostly make wall quilts but since I have 4 scheduled times with my quilter and I dare not miss those dates, I do send off 4 large quilts for her to do. Loving the blue fabric!
Thank you for the chance to win
Beautiful fabric. Would love to win
Small projects are the best for me.
I make all sizes of quilts. Right now I have a queen, king, and baby quilt in different stages. I have also have 2 BOM and just signed up for a new class. Did I mention I am a little ADD? I LOVE GIVEAWAYS!
I like to make all sizes – love to teach all sizes. Love looking at all quilts big and small. Oh just Quilting for JOY!
I like to do baby quilts with an occasional throw size/back of sofa type. I’ve made so many big, bed size ones, that the whole family has their own by now!
Love, Love, Love your site, Pat! I have just discovered it, as well as your FB page & am having a wonderful time, esp. with all the delightful memories you’ve stirred up with Grandma’s Kitchen! Can’t wait to do that apron one!!
Thank you for all the great projects & for this chance to win your giveaway, too.
For the past year I have mostly made small and miniature quilts. I have about a dozen queen size tops that need quilted so decided I needed a wall of miniatures that I can actually quilt myself much easier than the large ones. Your houses are so cute. I have had a small house quilt on my to do list for quite some time. What a great give away, who ever is lucky enough to win it, will be thrilled.

I love to make all the projects from tiny clutch purses to the big bed quilts, I just need more time!!! Would love to win the blues as they are so soothing to work with. Thank you for giving all of us a chance to win the giveaway.
I make mostly bed quilts, usually queen size.
I definitely make more bed quilts. My husband has always told me to make something usable. I do sneak throws and wallhangings in from time to time.
Super Love the Neighborhood blocks! Awesome idea!
Now that I think about it, surprisingly I have made a full mixture of items, baby quilts, lap quilts, queen and king size too, as well as table runners, placemats and a couplemof mug rugs. Thanks for asking!
Lately I have been making smaller projects specifically table runners. I am trying to make one for each month to celebrate either the season or some holiday that takes place in that month. So far I have four with one in the quilting stage. As always, thanks for doing this give-away
I love to make smaller sewn and quilted projects… they get finished quicker!!!
I seem to be making bed Quilts at this time…
I make mostly baby and lap size quilts. I have a few larger ones on my “to do” list in the near future, though!
Such a fun quilt. 3 blocks done.
Small projects. I’m new at this and I’m adding skills with each project.
I make mostly bed quilts, but have recently started some small projects, and i have developed a love for miniature quilts!
I make all size of quilts. But mostly a size cancer patients can take with them for treatment days to stay warm
bed quiltsare my project chose…any thing small always grows up to large size..all by themselves. hahaha
I love giveaways. I do a variety of projects.
I have only done small quilting projects, working on my first throw quilt for my middle granddaughter who will be 6 at the end of September.
I make mostly bed quilts but I also make quite a few baby quilts. Doesn’t matter to me as long as I’m sewing
