Midnight Stars Doll Quilt Along - Part 4



Lori blogged the instructions for Part 4 last night.  And this morning I was busy cutting up squares.  It goes along fairly quickly with chain piecing. Love the blocks and glad Lori encouraged me to give it a go since it's a 5" block which is small for me.

I clowned played around with a house block with some scraps.  Did not use the instructions of using a template for the roof.  I just winged it in my cockamamie way.  Ah well ... I'll just let it ferment a little ...

Prairie Schooler's  More Friends has been taking up my nights.  Absolutely adore this piece.  Feel quite motivated to get it done after seeing all those lovely cross stitch pieces from the girls!

    The proportions of the house block looks to be spot on.
