February OMG in the nick of time!

Block 4 is done just under the wire for February OMG.  I wondered whether I would meet my goal.  I was sidetracked with Gyleen Fitzgerald's QAL Pebbles, Bricks and Cobblestones.  I had to set that project aside and get back to appliqueing my houses.  I learned that I need to learn more about reverse applique.  When I cut the fabric and laid another piece underneath and stitched, I apparently had problems with bias stretch because my windows were all cockeyed.  Maybe starch would help.  I will have to learn more.  Thanks to Becky Goldsmith and Linda Jenkins for teaching me how to crease my edges before I stitch and to Liuxin Newman for teaching me how to applique the scant 1/8 of an inch for the lamp posts.  I struggled with the globes for the lamp posts, but finally managed to get them stitched.  I am so fond of houses.  I hope the fabric I selected for the church looks like stained glass.  On to Block 5.
