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.

AND when you post your photos to Social Media, like Instagram, Facebook, etc., use either of these hash tags so everyone there will be able to find our wonderful work:

Loving this technique! No more paper piecing for me. My small houses are done. Now to start Small House 2. I am using my scraps and stash with several different backgrounds.

Here are my Houses 1 and 2. I love freezer paper piecing -- it's the only way I've paper pieced for years.

I think when you add the trees between some of the houses it will look different and more to your liking.

This is the revised version of blocks 1&2. I didn’t have enough background sky for the entire quilt, plus I wanted more colorful houses, so I redid all of house 1, and replaced the sky in all of blocks 2.

Thank you everyone for all your tips. I’m still working on the Holiday Star Quilt, but will start my houses this weekend, with my edge stitch foot. Which I am buying today! This is a great learning place, I will also add the 1/4”! Thanks again, Barbara and everyone in the forum.
