This has been one of those weeks where you wonder where the time went! Here is the sum total of my sewing in the last week...
I did finish the little snack mat, inspired by the dive into my orphan block drawer.
Along the way there was a tiny 16 patch made for another gameboard block, too.
And I bet you can see that I did make one more house for A Year in the Neighborhood.
My Christmas scraps didn't contain any Santas,
but there was lots of this fun candy cane print.
When I laid out all 12 of the houses I've made (without any trees), I came up with this. And now it looks like I might need a 13th house, lol! Maybe Santa will make an appearance after all.
There's always something to think about with this project!

Oh, yes, you certainly want Santa to visit!! Cute houses.
ReplyDeleteDarling candy cane house to add to your collection, Diann;))) It'll be a "baker's dozen"--remember that? Hugs, Julierose
ReplyDeleteLove that candy cane house!
ReplyDeleteAll you houses are really fun! A Santa one would be a great addition. Hope you get in more scrap time today.
ReplyDeleteThe heart-filled houses are a delight!
ReplyDeleteI'm using browns and grays for my last 2 houses. I know you will come up with something wonderful. Still lots of fill in work to think about with mine. It won't be a finish this year, but I musn't put it aside or will not finish ever.
ReplyDeleteHmmm Santa making an appearance or a Santa house? Either would be a great addition. I look forward to watching this project progress!
ReplyDeleteI knew there had to be at least one Christmas house--what a lovely village you have there--enjoy--hugs, di
ReplyDeleteYour houses look great.
ReplyDeleteNot Santa, Diann. You need a penguin house!! :o))
ReplyDeleteThats another cut house, and yes, it looks like you do need to stitch one more. And then slot the trees in place. You are nearly there!
ReplyDeleteThe houses look fab! Any additional house will be great in the mix.
ReplyDeleteI agree. A Santa House is a must and surely worth a trip to the LQS. Look for penguins in Santa hats and please all the people this time!. Big order, probably!
ReplyDeletethose are all nice, I don't know which I like best.
ReplyDeleteCute snack mat and I love the Christmas House. The candy canes is such a fun print. Obvious the neighborhood needs a Santa, or Christmas penguin house!
ReplyDeleteLots of fun things to look at in your fabric neighbourhood! Gail at the cozy quilter
ReplyDeleteYour neighborhood houses look so cute together. I agree with Julierose - a baker's dozen will work just fine. And Santa certainly deserves his own block!
ReplyDeleteI agree with Joy, you need a penguin house! I mean you have a Bronco house so it would seem like a penguin house is a must ;-)
ReplyDeleteIf you wanted to stay with 12 houses you could have rows with 2, then 3, 2, 3 & 2 houses, beginning & ending with 2 instead of 3.
ReplyDeleteA penguin block is a natural choice, but rearranging the rows so that the first row only has 2 house blocks works as well. Are you doing trees for the alternating blocks? Thanks for sharing in Sew & Tell.
ReplyDeleteLooks like a wonderful neighborhood.
ReplyDeleteWhat sweet house blocks! I love the heart shaped door. I think you need a Santa house!
ReplyDeleteThe houses are looking great, Diann. Love the candy cane fabric in the most recent block.
ReplyDeleteI'm sure Santa needs to come too. Let me know if you need some Santa fabric... I might have something that would work. And I'd be happy to move it to your stash and out of mine!
