AlmoST a NeiGHBouRHooD

I am in a "House & Garden" block swap with 11 ladies from our guild.
Each block had to measure 8 1/2 inch unfinished but could be any design or interpretation that you considered suited the theme. The blocks could be pieced, embroidered or appliqued... or any combination. I chose to appliqué... using my favourite method... blanket stitch edged.
All 10 blocks were to be the same but the colours could change.
Here are my 10 blocks...

How cute, a great idea. I would like to be in something like that. Not to complicated and a sweet quilt just to be pieced and finished. Anxious to see what you get.

I love them Cheryll! Well done, I hope everyone is happy with the outcomes of the block swap.
Oh my, did you hand-stitch them all?! That's a lot of work
