Building Houses from Scraps



See that new button l have over on the right? A little house?

Well, its a new sew-a-long,  being run by Jeanneke over here.

The plan is to make a house every day for 366 days.

1 little bitty house, just 3" big.

Thats right.  1 house every day next year, 2012,
which just happens to be a leap year.

You can read here where it all started.




There are no rules, just guidelines.
Want to join in?

l am off to go through my scrap basket!!

Thanks for visiting.
Linda.


Edit- l have had a few inquiries how to join.
 You need to visit Jeanneke at her blog
http://buildinghousesfromscraps.blogspot.com
send her an email to register, and on the 15th December,
we will all receive an email with the pattern.
Then the building can begin!!!

    I like the idea, but not sure I could manage one every day! I may switch to a different block and do a cat a day :-)
