You have been sewing along on your 'Will you Be my Neighbor' quilts and I decided it was time to get this running again for everyone! These gorgeous big house blocks with trees, birds, stars and a lovely sail boat are so cute I can't stand it! And the blocks are free from Moda, which is so generous!!
So what's a neighborhood without a few friends? So I started!!!
I started mine with the Juniper Berry Christmas-y but not too Christmas-y fabric line to make mine a Winter Neighborhood. I'm in Virginia so I do get winter.
With this version of the sew along I may do a second neighborhood. Should it be red & white/ Red and Aqua?
You can get a bit of Juniper Berry HERE or HERE, but it's an older line. so look for MORE fun Christmas HERE (all links at the end again)
Look at HOW ADORABLE this fabric is.. seriously adorable.
I need more.. so leave me some

I also sewed up this house with my Hometown girl.. There is a tree on the left side of the house to complete the block
The windows are so perfect for fun fabrics!
All my Christmas-y version background will be the same Moda Tiny dot.
I will improvise as I go if I need more and add from what I have on hand
