This building has several names, besides the Gibson Block Building;
Flatiron Building
Gibson Block
Schubert and Wenzel Block.
"The Gibson Block Building is valued as a rare example of a commercial building following the 1902 prototype of a flatiron building, so named for its distinctive triangular shape. The building design, with Chicago style influences, balances the vertical emphasis of pilasters and windows with the horizontal presentation of the continuous glass shop fronts and first storey and fourth storey cornices.
Developed by William Gibson, the Gibson Block Building characterizes the historic wave of prosperity and opportunity at the height of the commercial boom in pre-World War One Edmonton. Originally built to provide first floor retail space and offices on the remaining floors, the building's use has evolved with Edmonton's changing economic fortunes and has included office, retail and for a significant part of the historic period, the well-known Turkish Baths, which closed in 1978.
The Gibson Block Building's triangular form and prominent location on Jasper Avenue contribute to its valued local landmark status."

Bold. Simple. Modern. Mod Blocks takes its cues from the MidCentury Modernists with its clean design and palette of graphic print and strong solids. We'll walk you through the entire quiltmaking process from quilt top construction to a machine-finished binding. Finished quilt is 48" square.

To keep mischief makers out, the doors and all of the lower windows were sealed with cinder blocks. Substantial steel plates block the upper windows. On the upper left one of those upper-floor plates was loosened from the inside and removed, allowing light into the far end of the dormitory.
My second block for the Star Light Star Bright quilt along. A little wonkier than my first block, but I'm trying to just take a deep breath and let it go. :)

This is one of the first blocks series I ever created and it is still my favourite. It is also the simplest in concept compared to the second and third derivation of the idea.
Essentially I sampled the four most prevalent colours in an image and drew them as blocks of colour. When viewed at a large size (4 ft wide) the subtle differences in the banding shows up nicely.
I think the less I interfere or try to tweak an image the better off it is. Consequently I find I end up using the first images created by a program rather than any of the multitude of iterations that come afterwards.
I wish I could favourite my own images :)

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.
