After Carrie posted this amazing pattern for a lumbar pillow made with just five house blocks from her "Full House" pattern, I had to get started making some Christmas houses! I just need to quilt this up and make it into a pillow now!
Then I felt a bit bad about not finishing my original "Full House" quilt, so I hurried and finished that!
I love the "Full House" made with Carrie's 9 Dots fabric!
If you've just been to Carrie's blog...you know why I had to make a Countdown to Christmas house, too...I haven't decided yet whether this will become a big pillow, a small pillow...or another full-sized Schnibble.
Plus, my copies of Modern Blocks arrived today: Modern Blocks: 99 Quilt Blocks from Your Favorite Designers
(for more information on this book see my post here). And this means I can give away a copy! Just leave a comment on this post, and you'll be entered to win!
