Barbara's Houses

Background

00/00/2009 - These quilting fabrics were donated to a charity shop (perhaps the quilter had died) and a friend bought them and gave them to me. I made the houses to record all the homes I've had through my life so far and, when finished, it will have all the addresses embroidered underneath each house. There are seven empty ones at the end for potential moves in the future..
