Love your videos I watch them several times especially the house blocks

I do love these cute little house blocks. So easy to make and quick, too. I make my roofs by trimming 1/2" off each charm square (half) to become 4.5" across by 2.5" high. Then I don't lose those points on rooftops - also, makes proper flying geese blocks! Try it, I think you'll like it. ;) Thanks, Susan-Claire, for another lovely tutorial!

Your method is the best! Very easy to follow. Thank you,

I just started quilting maybe 18 months ago. I discovered your You Tube videos...and of all I watch, yours are my favorite. I've learned so much. My first project was a spool quilt and instead of doing the long sashing strips, trying to line up the cornerstone on a 5' piece of fabric, I built the sashing around each block like on one of your videos. Came out great. Thanks!

👍🇺🇸🙂🐵 THANK YOU !!!

[@rebeccaestrada744]

Thankyou

[@ginnygreuling8625]

These are such cute little houses. Is there a way to prevent losing "the tip" of the roof in the seam? Your videos are so wonderful. I like the fact that you show how to strip piece so you make two houses at one time. Thank you, Ginny G.

[@cazfromoz1]

Yes, Ginny, to make roofs (with points) trim 1/2" off each charm square (half) to become 4.5" across by 2.5" high. You won't lose points on rooftops - also, makes proper flying geese blocks! Cutting measurements for house walls are 2" x 3", door is 1.5" x 3" and lintel (above door) is 1.5" x 4.5". You'll have a slightly smaller house block, but just as cute! Try it, you'll like it. ;)

[@cazfromoz1]

Gourmet Quilter's house blocks are very cute - and losing the points isn't a problem!

[@ritatsourekis4071]

Please give specific measurements for each piece used. Thank you

[@margaretmclean4291]

Great tutorial; however, what is the finished measurements for the house?

[@cherylmahon8324]

what are the measurements if I need a house block that ends up being 12.5 inch block?

[@conniedubois2049]

I have just discovered this tutorial. I’ve tried to find the pattern on your website but it isn’t there. Any suggestions ?

[@connieandrobertsturtz4318]

Cute house but there is NO seam allowance on the roof point.

[@judylsanvitis7790]

Where may I purchase a pattern? Or may I use these dimensions and share with others? I will be sure to tell them I got this design from your KZbin and will direct them here. Please advise. Thank you so much!

[@GourmetQuilter]

+Judy L Sanvitis Hi Judy, sorry, I don't have a pattern available just now, however you are welcome to share and direct them here. Thanks for asking.

[@judylsanvitis7790]

+GourmetQuilter How can I add a photo of the little wall hanging I made using your directions?

[@mtnjhutch]

I think I will make Leader and Ender houses🤔

[@francesaceste2469]

I purchased the written pattern but walls were too small when I followed those measurements

[@GourmetQuilter]

Hi, the pattern you purchased (thank you) is not the same as shown in the video. The measurements are given in the video for using the 5” squares.
