Scrappy Pink

This past week I made the pink blocks for the rainbow quilt and some little pink houses!

I re-drew the house pattern to make the pieces easier for me to deal with but it is still small-6" give or take.  The first house went together quite easily, thought I had it made!  The second house took forever, each one after that (making adjustments along the way to my pattern) has gotten easier, at least I haven't had to re-cut the pieces any more!  I like them.  I've already cut out a bunch more-hoping to stitch 8 each week then I'll be caught up by the end of the year!

Sun is finally shining!  It is, however, too wet to do any work in the yard :(  Oh well, more time to stitch!

Love your little houses! So very cute. I'm making some small 6" pieced blocks for the first time, it is hard to get them just right.

Adorable blocks and houses!

Great houses. Like anything, little blocks get easier with practice. If you keep it up, 12 inch blocks will start to seem like giants.

Love those little pink houses!!! Are you trying to make one for each day? I like the idea of making several out of each Rainbow Challenge color!

Your houses are oh so cute! Love them in pink. And I love your little blocks too... I'm going to miss pink next month. I'm glad the sun is shining for you at last.
