Description:

I am re-posting this swap in the group to see if I can boost the interest again with this block. This block is really fun so I am hoping that some of our new members will join in. In this swap we are creating a scrappy village with funky odd-shaped houses. Inspired by the free piecing methods of Tanya Ricucci. Since all blocks can be different sizes please send some scrap fabric to be used as filler. Sender decides block size. It's not necessary, but feel free to add bushes, trees etc... if you like. (3D ...embroidered, applique etc) :) This is a scrappy quilt so let's have fun! Be creative with your houses! Get wonky! If you would prefer to have your blocks in jewel tones, bright colors, White background, please get with your partner and let them know. Google Wonky Town quilt or visit " http://www.quiltmaker.com/articles/wonky_town " to see this Wonky Quilt. PM me for questions! These are a lot of fun! let me know if you have any questions.

This looks really cool! I love the finished quilt at the link you gave! However, that page has outdated links to Tonya's specific tutorials - I finally found her tutorial on doing the houses at http://unrulyquilter.com/tutorials/wonkytown.pdf (Her entire blog at unrulyquilter.com is great!!!) I think I'll try to make a block first & IF I am able to, then I'll join the swap! :)
