It's a beautiful day in the neighborhood...
a beautiful day for a neighbor...
would you be mine?
Won't you be mine?
Won't you be my neighbor?
(stolen from Mr.Rogers..haha)
Will you be my neighbor on
"Cozy Cottage Lane"
Another new pattern by me.
I love house quilts...don't you?
So you know I just had to design at least two house quilts with a fabric line called Daisy Cottage ...right?
I knew that my furniture fabric with the
white background would be perfect for
fussy cutting inside the doors and windows of each cozy little cottage:)
I used my large gray floral for a scallop border that is pieced...not appliqued.
The pieced scallop border is one that I use alot in my designs because I love the way it frames my quilts and is so easy to do.
I love my Cozy Cottage Lane quilt....
what a fun neighborhood to live in...
will you live in it with me?
Coming up tomorrow...
2 more patterns to show you!

I love little house quilts also! Beautiful.
I will live in it with you, lol... It is beautiful. You do such wonderful work. Cheers, LJ ps I love your chose of songs.
Oooohhh!!! Those are such cute little houses!!!!
These quilts you are demonstrating are sewing all the right seeds in my head..it is a marvelous education too! I'd love to use your fabric there are so many opportunities to have fun!
I love how you did the fussy cutting for the inside of the cottages! I am looking at it on Lindsay's computer, so it is almost like seeing it in person. The colors are very rich. I really like the pieced scallop border too.
Wonderful quilt, love the scalloped border and all the grey prints are just adorable!!
What a lovely little neighborhood!
The cuteness with this fabric just goes on and on... I like this pattern just as much as the lampshades. :-) I blogged about you here: http://myhappybluebird.blogspot.com/2011/10/sweat-tears.html
I would love to win one of these patterns. Thanks so much for the giveaway! :-)
The houses certainly are perfect for your great fabrics. I especially like your pieced scallop border - looks great and so nice to not have to applique it all around. What fun!
This is my favorite-I too love house quilts. I think that rather than furniture, each of my windows would have a lovely chandalier (because although difficult to choose a favorite print, I do think it's the chandaliers!).
I love the houses and the way you put it together. You are soooo creative!
How darling! I love the fussy cut furniture. Too cute!
I love houses too and yours are gorgeous!
I would love to live in that neighbourhood - and love to sew it :-)
It sure is a beautiful day in the neighborhood. This neighborhood of yours is so delightful. I can't wait to see your other 2 patterns.
I don't know why, but I too am drawn to house quilts. I made a school house quilt once but it was one I sold many years ago. I've got a couple of house patterns that are on my bucket list ;-) I love your pattern too!
I'd love to live there in a Cozy Cottage Village! The scallop border is the finishing touch!
I must say this is beautiful. You should also know that previously I have never considered pink/grey/gold as a combination but now I love it!
Good on you!
I especially like the black telephone and the black clock in the window. :)
hvor er det nogen fine huse:)
I love houses too, yours are very cute! I love the way you can fussy cut furniture to show thru the windows and doors. :-)
Lovely quilt and a wonderful quilting.

The fussy-cutting is fun and I seldom have made any quilts where I could use it. Clever and cute!
Adorable. Been thinking of creating a house quilt for my oldest niece, and she's very enthusiastic about the idea! :)
Another cute quilt! I adore the way you have fussy cut the chair, lamp, etc. Love it!

I love those little houses all in a row. I can't believe the scallop border is pieced.... Beautiful work!

I love the clever use of fabric prints in the little houses windows and doors. So adorable!
I love your little houses! And the quilting is divine.
I would love to be your neighbor. I love the fussy cut fabric in the windows and doors.

Your fabric is adorable in the houses. I love that border too. I am going to have to look into how to do that.

I always sish I could live in your nieghborhood. I love this pattern I want to make it more than once or twice or maybe three times. Perfect as always.
I love house quilts. This one is so pretty.
Your fabric screams house blocks to me. I love these and would be very interested in learning how you pieced the scallop border.
I love all the fussy cutting. So pretty. I love the scalloped boarder it does frame the inside great. I need to try that out.
If you look very closely, you will see a hint of where I am sitting on one of the chairs in a window. Love your neighborhood.
Just darling :) I lurve houses :)!!
