I think I would do houses in the country, since I live in the country.

—Elaine in North Texas on June 21, 2017I think I would start with houses in the city so I could really showcase the houses. I do live in the country and one of our place with the flagpole and container garden as well as our little vineyard would be a cute one later.

—Rand Case on June 21, 2017A version of my neighborhood, using the customizable blocks in the book. I live on the Navajo Nation and neighborhoods tend to have unique characteristics…the 27,000 square miles are mostly rural with clusters of homes, based on family units. Daughters bring their families to her parents’ land. Sons go to their wives’ family land. Most homes have a wood stove for heat with a black round smoke stack. They face east to welcome the morning sun.

—Danette Roundy on June 23, 2017I grew up in a very small town in south Texas and couldn’t wait to get to the big city. Have lived in Houston and Dallas for years now, and as I remember life in a small town, I’m still happier in the bigger cities. I have made house quilts for Ronald McDonald house. This would be a new twist on those quilts.
—Karol Hogan on June 23, 2017House blocks are as favorite of mine & I love embellishing them, you know, a little DIY yo bring some into this century.
I am in the process of making small but not miniatures for our Children’s Hospital. By making the small ones each room can have one for a Wall Hanging. Some of the patients want their dog, cat, bird, etc added; they get such a kick from explaining their quilts to visitors, & the hospital staff.
Thank You for the entry.
—Barbara MACEY on June 23, 2017I would make assorted house blocks.

Oh for houses in the country. That’s where I live and enjoy the quiet, slow days that are mine.
—Cindy on June 23, 2017I would love to build a quilt for my son who loves the city scene. I would modify the buildings as follows: He has always loved the bright lights and skyscrapers in the big city. When traveling, we always drove through the big cities rather than around them as most people would do to avoid the stop-and-start traffic – just so he could see the buildings. He now lives in Atlanta where he gets his fill of the bright lights and skyscrapers every day.
