Day 13 of 365 Toy Project
Bought these vintage blocks for my niece, but since she is at the stage when she will put everything in her mouth, I happily put them in my toy chest.
I love these blocks.
The Block Arcade is one of the finest examples of a 19th Century shopping arcade. It is renowned for its impressive etched glass roof with decorative wrought iron and timber supports and has the largest mosaic floor area in Australia. The complex is classified by the National Trust.
Designed by architect D.C. Askew for the financier Benjamin Fink, the arcade was constructed in two sections in 1891 and 1893. It derived its name from the tradition of "doing the block", or parading around Melbourne's fashionable shopping streets.
The arcade was restored and refurbished by the Buchan Group, which upgraded the complex to modern retail and commercial standards while remaining faithful to the original Victorian vision. The work involved the reinstatement of original timber shopfronts

These are the blocks I made for my hive in this quarter of the 4x5 Bee. The pattern is Pioneer Compass. It's a paper-pieced block from eQuiltPatterns.

The East Block is part of the Canadian Parliament buildings in Ottawa, Canada. The original East Block was once the domain of some famous Canadians. Indeed, Sir John A. Macdonald and Sir George-Étienne Cartier had offices in this block, as did a number of Governors General and members of the Privy Council.
When the 1910 wing was added, in effect linking the two ends of the original building and enclosing a courtyard.
Today, the East Block contains many senators' offices, as well as some rooms re-created in the style of the early years of Confederation.Source GC Public Works
I got a second chance for a rewarding life...but not without some hard work. This diploma was one of the building blocks to achieving this. Prior to this I achieved an undergrad in Drug & Alcohol Counselling and have worked in the helping field for many years.
Beauty can be found about anywhere. In this case, the bathroom window, beveled so as to block the view. Shot with a Sony NEX-5T with x10 filter.
This is a sheet for the bed that was hanging out on the clothes line. When I saw the light on it, I was keen to take a pic to see how it would turn out.

For my month in Bee Improvisational I am asking my fellow bee members to make blocks in the using Bumble Beans Inc's Waverunner tutorial. This is one of the sample blocks I made. All colour information is here.
The dimensions of this block are about 22" by 20". For this block I sewed many strips together and then cut the block into two pieces. I then inserted strips in between the two pieces of the block and added one more strip to the side.
Here's my star blocks using the Star Quilt along patterns on crazymomquilts.blogspot.com/
I decided to do another quilt but this time I am using the same fabrics, but different ones for each star from last time.
Block-O-Ween is here!
For those of you who are asking "WTF is Block-O-Ween?" Starting tomorrow (October first) I will be posting a new custom image with a new theme every day in October till the 31st (Halloween).
Here are the themes for each day.
Illinois' Michelle Strizak swings around the Indiana block, but libero Taylor Lebo is ready for the dig.
Again, I used a technique I never had before to make this wonky star. I then decided that the block needed something extra and so I added the pieced border. I added some of my own scraps to this block.

Paul Klee's quote fits I think: "The painter should not paint what he sees, but what will be seen”. I chose these details of this house in Kirchberg an der Pielach for you to see.
