. . . row row row ten . . .

. . . after i made it 

to the bottom of my ironing pile 

during general conference, 

i rewarded myself with 

a little "get to" sewing . . .

. . . maybe i should make myself 

a chore chart 

with stickers and prizes . . .

. . . time to work on

row ten: houses . . .

. . . earlier in the week, 

i had selected these fabrics 

for houses and roofs 

and residents . . .

. . . got 'em all cut out . . .

. . . and construction began . . .

. . . here're the first two houses 

on the block . . .

. . . and the whole subdivision . . .

. . . with crazy toddlers 

in the grey and aqua house . . .

. . . identical twins 

in the yellow and red house . . .

. . . visually challenged hat wearers 

in the red and pink house . . .

. . . a cute little top-knotted redhead 

and her sister 

in the pink and green house . . .

. . . and a ballet studio 

in the yellow and grey house . . .

. . . these are, of course, tract homes . . .

. . . everyone has the same floor plan,

 door and chimneys . . .

. . . how about 

a gratuitous geranium shot 

of the whole row? . . .

{note to self: blue painters tape 

definitely shows through white background fabric}

. . . this row was pretty quick 

to put together . . .

. . . ten rows down . . .

. . . three to go . . .

. . . plus a few other things 

that make this quilt 

over the top amazing . . .
