Come Over To My House - BOM 2009
Block 6 - Shelby's Cottage and Dog House

Block 6 is a called "Shelby's Cottage and Dog House". You may want to save some extra sky/background fabric for later when we make the tree that goes with this house.

Here is Alecia's cottage and dog house:

To match Alecia's color scheme for block 6, you'll need orange-yellow scraps for house, red scraps for dog house, dark brown scraps, light brown scraps, tan scraps, black scraps and white or cream scraps along with your sky/background.

This pattern is no longer available free, but you can purchase it for $1.00 on my Patterns Page.
