Gingerbread House Christmas Quilt

Roof and Sky
Measurements for Fabric of Roof and Sky

Roof:
- 10" base and 6-5/8" height

Make a template by connecting the base to height, to make the triangle.

Use this template to cut out your roof piece.

Sky: (Figure A)
- 5-1/2" x 7-1/4" square

Sewing Roof and Sky

1. Cut sky diagonally for two sky triangle pieces. The sky is cut a bit larger than the roof, so it will hang over slightly when stitching it to the roof.
2. Stitch sky pieces to the roof, cutting off any "ears" that are hanging over. Set aside.
