Tiny Houses

I have been home from work, sick. This horrible cough-crud struck on Thursday night -- at the Orchestra, no less! -- and hasn't let up for a minute. I spent most of Friday, Saturday, Sunday, and Monday in bed. And it is still going strong.

Yesterday our Guild president posted a project for us to do. It seems that there is a collection underway of tiny little house blocks; the plan is to make a comfort quilt for each of the 23 (or is it 26?) households that lost their homes in the recent tornado. I decided to take a stab at making a couple. A couple led to a few and a few led to a handful and, by gum, it looks like the handful has led to a development. And they take my mind off my misery.

Each little house finishes at 4.5 x 6. Each takes about five whole minutes from start to finish. Himself says they are about the size of a spacious outhouse. 

I am very happy to have this distraction.

Love,

Mrs. Levitt

I like my outhouses spacious.
Looks like these are in the same category as Lay's Potato Chips.

Sorry you've been so miserable and hope you've had lots of nourishing soup so you're on the mend now.

Cute little houses! Am glad their construction has helped you while away the time and take your mind off of the respiratory bothers.

Long distance hugs!
