House's House!

As you can imagine, having HOUSE for a last name is interesting, to say the least...and that was before there was a television show by the same name.  We're used to it of course, but new friends sometimes stumble over it...they may receive a phone call while here, and someone will ask where they are; generally it's "we are at the House's house?" Then they feel silly, and we say 'it's alright, we've heard it all before'. 

So many internet searchs bring quilters to our blogs looking for house blocks...funny that I've never done one, so I figured it was time to change all that.  What better name could I give to my little house, then House's House!  These are so fun and fast to make.  The fabric...it's Basic Grey's Grunge...I love it so much!  I'm going to create an entire quilt from these incredible fabrics...little pink houses anyone???

My surname is Orchard, and I always get a laugh from the librarians when I borrow gardening books ;) Perhaps I'd better do a tutorial for a fruit tree block?

Love, love, love your new book, your quilt style, & your work in general! Thanks for bringing your style to the table, so to speak. And, and, and such talented daughters...what's your secret? I need all the pointers I can get!
