Stylistically between Neoclassicism and Bauhaus, the Hygiene Museum in Dresden is worth a visit, also from the architectural viewpoint.
An old fabric/wallpaper printing block we bought last week, comprising a heavy wooden block with the design built up in metal shapes. Makes a rather lovely print, as you can see here

Unused image from a shoot/ review for Blocks Magazine (Issue 25).
I loved working with 10252 Volkswagen Beetle, really lent itself to being shot on location at sunset- and Mother Nature delivered right when it mattered most!

This former Plasmor & Translift brick and block lorry was a surprise find on a quiet Peak District back road.
The walls of the school I attended through junior high (middle school for the kids out there), build in the mid '50s, were build out of fired blocks like these. But push button light switch inside the first door on the right tells me that the building is older than that.

m lovingly refers to this quilt as "clown vomit." he says that every time he looks at it he thinks of this shirt: www.threadless.com/submission/44125/The_Morning_After.
perhaps this quilt isn't his most favorite?
i'm really enjoying watching it grow...it sure is eating up a lot of my scraps! i've finished 12 blocks + i have about 24 more to go, if i can eke that many out of the scraps.
Day 13 - A Pile of Things
Today, it's a pile of blocks ... we're having a new garage built and the old one will be demolished.
One of my blocks in the new book by C&T Publishing, Modern Blocks.

I'd never seen baby seagulls before, but there were dozens of nesting seagulls around the North Lighthouse. These siblings were both pleading piteously to their Mom(?) for something to eat--sometimes in unison. I shoulda captured it on video, but I'm definitely more of a still photo kinda guy. I watched them for some time, hoping to catch a feeding, but it never came I guess Mom was teaching them patience (HA! As if ANY seagull evidenced even a trace of that trait!). This northern end of the island was quite beautiful, as it's been kept undeveloped (save for the lighthouse) as a wildlife preserve. The other end of the island was plenty beautiful as well, and where I spent the majority of my time. There is where one finds Mohegan Bluffs Beach, photos of which will eventually find their way into my stream.
For her blocks in Bee Unique Bee Knotty Joanna sent us either green or blue fabrics plus some grey and white. She asked for geometric, non-wonky, non-pinwheel blocks and noted that she loved paper-pieced stars.
I love paper piecing so it was an easy choice. This block is from a quilt pattern called Millennium Compass on eQuiltPatterns. I used the two green fabrics that were sent and added in two of my own, each slightly darker than the ones sent.

I fell in love with these crossed canoe blocks. I'm thinking of making a whole quilt out of these, something scrappy maybe?
