Topic: COLOR MY WORLD--MONTH 1--Small Houses 1 and 2 (15/34) - The Quilt Show Forum

Welcome, Guest

Enjoy "Color My World" by Wendy Williams - This beautiful quilt is constructed of soft and textural shot cottons from Windham fabrics on a richly patterned background. It offers so many opportunities for personalization through both embellishment and quilting- you could add house numbers, decorations, people, pets, garden flowers- there are so many ways to make this quilt truly your own!

Let's use this Topic "Color My World Show and Tell" as a place to show off your beautiful work. That way, you know where to come to see what everyone is doing.

The topics that apply to each month are a good place to ask questions or make suggestions for each block.

Off to a good start hope to finish by next month. My biggest dilemma was picking background fabric. Going with tree fabric for small houses and clouds for tall buildings

lchapman, If you use tree fabric for background behind the small houses, when we get to the green semi circles you would be putting trees on top of trees Also, the bias tape is the trunks for the tree semi circles. You could use the clouds behind the small houses. And a different cloud or maybe a galaxy fabric behind the tall buildings. HelenW

Guess, It would work to have trees on trees if you had good contrast in the green colors. Say, light green for one fabric and dark green for the other. Or if you are using fabric with actual tree images on it,pick one with small leaves and one wth evergreen trees.

Thank you Beth I did get the PDF files and printed on freezer paper in actual size I’m having trouble getting the videos

I just tried again going to learn block of the month BOM 2021 but they still end at December 29, it says I’m logged in so I have no idea what I’m doing wrong, very frustrating

Hello KathKelly - the video's are here - scroll down to the bottom three (BOM 2021 - Color My World - The Basics of Sewing the Blocks / BOM 2021 - Color My World - Working with Freezer Paper / BOM 2021 - Color My World - Cutting the Background Fabric ) and yes they are from 29th December - but they do help immensley

All 16 Small Houses will be the same size, 8 #1’s and 8 #2’s. In March we will make 16 more, #3 and #4. Hi Barbara, All the same size. Must just be the angle of the photograph. Thanks for checking.

I’ve tried everything I GIVE UP TODAY WAY TO FRUSTRATING thanks for trying to help

Under Month 1 there are SIX videos, all that I have done. The THREE that pertain to Month 1 were posted December 29. They are:

Cutting the Background Fabric
Working with Freezer Paper
The Basics of Sewing the Blocks

The next video will happen in February for the Mariner's Compass.

The LIVE broadcasts that I have done are on YouTube--and you can find The Quilt Show Playlist on YouTube right up there on the top bar of this page--I am pointing...
