Village Quilt Pattern

Have you seen the Village quilt pattern by Miss Rosie & Co?

It's really cute!  I think it has 132 houses in the village!  I posted a link above, it is now a free pattern to download at Fat Quarter Shop. This quilt has been on my wish list for a long time. My friend alerted me that the Rusted Silo Studio on Instagram was having a block swap. The exciting part was that you could only use Heather Ross fabric. What???? I adore Heather Ross fabric and have a small collection that I've been hoarding, saving! I made 10 blocks of 10 houses for the swap which were 100 houses. I got my houses back and immediately put them on my design wall. They are all so cuuuuuute!!!!!!

I'm going to sew these little houses together and create a village.  Each door has a fussy cut which I love! I didn't take any close ups of my houses, but these are my friend's blocks. Aren't they the cutest?

Here's a link to a former post about the Village Quilt pattern, and my blocks.

Soon I'll be able to show you the finished quilt ❤️

Thanks for following my quilt journey ❤️

Village quilt pattern

 I joined a swap group using these little houses in Heather Ross fabric.  I have a small collection of her fabric that I've had for quite a few years, so I was very excited to join! 

Rusted Silo Studio on Instagram, is hosting the swap if you would like to join too! The deadline is March 31 which leaves lots of time for busy people! This "Village" pattern has been on my wish list for a while, so win win! If I remember correctly, there are 134 houses in this village. 

I'm so excited about this, it's right up my alley! Aren't these fabrics cute together?  I forgot to mention that the doors need to be fussy cut fabrics which I'm so happy about.

I'm fussy cutting the adorable little bees in this yellow fabric and using the rest for houses.

I only had a fat quarter of this little ballerina fabric and was able to get about 33 little ballerinas from it.

My friend told me about this swap and she makes the cutest quilts.  We are also swapping some of our house blocks with each other. I can hardly wait to show you my finished quilt which won't be complete until May at the earliest. 

Let me know if you join the swap :)
