4x5 quilt bee.
Based on a quilt made by the amazing Rita of Redpepperquilts, blog post is here. I think she's coming out with a pattern early next year. I reverse engineered it knowing the block was 12" finished (the little squares are 1.5" finished, and I drafted a simple paper pieced template for the other units).
Colors: Coblat, Aqua, Lime with a white/grey/low volume background.
I really enjoyed digging into my blues and fussy cutting the center star.

Here are my blocks for my awesome hive 10 ladies. I used the mosaic block from the Summer Sampler Series run by Faith (Fresh Lemon Quilts) and friends this summer. Love the blocks, and love all the different colors! They're winging their way to the four corners as I type!
Block & tackle on board HMAS Diamantina, Queensland Maritime Museum, Brisbane, Queensland, Australia.
HMAS Diamantina - named after the Diamantina River in Queensland, is a River-class frigate that served the Royal Australian Navy (RAN). Constructed in the mid-1940s, Diamantina was active from 1945 until 1946, was placed in reserve, then was recommissioned as a survey ship from 1959 until 1980.
Following her second decommissioning, the frigate was preserved at the Queensland Maritime Museum as a museum ship. She was the last World War II-era frigate to leave RAN service, and of the 151 River-class frigates constructed for 19 navies worldwide, Diamantina is the only one preserved as a museum ship.

I'm sick of people adding faves and comments, yet when you go and look at their profile, they have no contacts and no photos available. I now block these people automatically. You may want to do the same - they are after private photos, e-mail adresses or want to coax you onto sites you don't want to see.
Add a link to this on your profile page too, so everybody sees it all the time.
For the GB fifth anniversary party. And my first commission.
If you can't come to the party, you can still buy a poster.

This is one of my test run for a new swap of polaroid blocks. They are currently 4" x 3.5" and the swap is to send them like this and then you can trim them or not as you like when you get them. This is a send a bunch and get a bunch back swap and will be great fun, there is room for more: www.flickr.com/groups/apolaroidblockswap/

Thank you!
The slaves that came into Fredericksburg were sold from this spot. They would be told to stand on the upper level and auctioned off to the highest bidder.
Much of America's treatment of slaves is airbrushed out of American history. Many people owned them but in historic buildings they're described as servants.
Incidentally the damage to the auction block is recent. It was attacked last year. No one knows who did it.
Here's the message I get.
I left a generic comment just as a test.
Flickr no longer actually tells me that I'm being blocked.
I'd block me, wouldn't you?
