A "Block" of Tiny Tiny Houses

Wow!  It wasn't until I actually put that title in that I realized those words had a double meaning!  I made a quilt block.  And the houses formed a block - like a neighborhood block.  Get it?

Anyway, since the Mystery Quilt blocks are all together and just need to be sewn together, I decided to treat myself to what I REALLY wanted to be doing--Tiny Tiny Houses!

I cut the sashing up and auditioned 4 fabrics for the cornerstones.  Then I made my decision and cut out the cornerstone pieces.  They are tinier then the houses at 1 1/2 inch by 1 1/2 inch!  Wow.

And this:







Became this:











Which became this:
(I don't know why they look all weird, they really are perfectly square)








Which turned into this beauty!






Only 9,999,999 to go!
