House Quilt

I started this one a couple of years ago. I was planning on adding large blue triangles around the house so it would be set on point. Then I wanted to add pieced log cabin triangles in the 4 corners of the blue triangles so it would be a square again. Well that just wasn't working for me as things weren't lining up right. So I set this aside for a long time and finally finished it the way you see it here. I used a flexible ruler to draw a free-form scalloped edge.
