I finished up House #4 from Houses of Hawk Run Hollow on Saturday. I did change the inside window color by one shade darker. The recommended color was way to close to the window sash color and it didn't even show a difference with the two dye lots I had. I pulled the silk for house #5 and I hope to start it tonight. It would be nice if I could get a head start on June's house - the nighttime house. That's going to take forever. :-) So the plan is to finish #5 as soon as I can and make a start on #6 before June even starts.
I sure do still have a lot of linen left! :-)
Rather than working on my Loose Feather piece over the weekend I really wanted to start Mrs. Pearson. Right now she looks like something out of a Tim Burton movie! I don't have the primary blue silk - I don't know how I didn't notice that when I ordered the silks but I'll put a call into Drema first thing tomorrow. And I can work around it's absence just fine in the meantime by working up the piece.

HoHRH looks great. I wish I had changed the window color on my block 4.
Good idea on the June block. I haven't decided how I'm going to find time to stitch all that black. I may make it my July travel project and work on it 4 nights a week while my son fences.
The Houses looks great! I agree with your color change - yours is better suited.
Tim Burto!!! That is hysterical ~ you are funny, and you're right, but only for now. It'll change. :p
Your Houses is looking fantastic! I can't wait to finish shores, so I can start it.
Love the other start as well. Good job!
Love the color change for the windows, it makes them really stand out now for sure! Great job! Nice start on Mrs. Pearson too!!
The House looks terrific, major feat getting a block done on this piece!! Nice start on Mrs. Pearson too!
Congratulations on your milestone with HoHRH! I can't wait to see more Mrs. Pearson. I love that one!
Congrats on finishing another house! I have been in love with that Mrs. Pearson design since she came out...so glad to see you stitching her!
You're right about Mrs. Pearson - she does look a little scary. But I'm sure she'll look prettier soon. Congrats on your fourth HoHRH block. I like the change you did for the windows.
congratulation for the finish house.
