Ottawa, Canadian capital
The Centre Block (in French: Édifice du centre) is the main building of the Canadian parliamentary complex on Parliament Hill, in Ottawa, Ontario, containing the Commons and Senate chambers, as well as the offices of a number of Members of Parliament and Senators, as well as senior administration for both legislative houses. It is also the location of several ceremonial spaces, such as the Hall of Honour, the Memorial Chamber, and Confederation Hall.
Built in the Gothic Revival style, the present Centre Block is the second iteration of the building, after the first was destroyed by fire in 1916; all that remains of the original building is the Library of Parliament, at the rear of the Centre Block. Though construction began immediately after the blaze, sculpting work on the interior continued through the 1970s. One of the most recognizable buildings in Canada, the Centre Block is depicted on the Canadian $10 bill (the Library of Parliament), $20 bill (the main entrance), and the $50 bill (the Peace Tower).
What a pain to have Flickr blocked here in Dubai. Why they do this is beyond me. Religion I guess, but I can go to a supermarket here and buy pork chops.
Just glad I found a proxy to get me through to Flickr. Still a pain and it makes Flickr so slow. Uploads are going to be a pain because this small file took a while.
Sarah is making quilts for two sisters who are in the foster system. She asked her blog readers to help make these quilts in pink and purple fabrics, the girls' favourite colours. Read the blog entry about it here and help out if you can spare a bit of time and fabric! The Flickr group is Quilting For Kids.
One quilt is going to made using these Garden Fence blocks made using the tutorial here. This block is super easy because there is no seam matching and no pinning needed.
I really like how the outer round is made up of different fabrics rather than a single fabric as is in the tutorial. I'm sure that these colours and this quilt are going to make one of the sisters know that people care about her.

Fire blocking seals the house. It really isnt for fire prevention since the families prefer leaving the walls open without interior wallboard. Why? Free instant shelving! Pretty cool.

Several hundred years ago, a vessel was wrecked upon the shore at Jurby, with 3 brothers, by the name of Quayle, surviving the wreckage. When they reached safety on the shore, they got down on their knees and thanked God for their survival - promising that they would settle on land as far from the sea as they could get - the top of the Sulby valley. In 1515, the manorial roll shows no Quayles in the area, yet by the following one, Quayles resided at Ballaskelly & the Creggans, and by the turn of the century, Quayles occupied Block Eary (Eairey), Ballaskella, The Creggans, Lhergy Rhennie, Sherragh Vane and Creg Mooar.
Unusually for Manx farmers, there is no record of any of these Quayles ever combining fishing with the farming, as was usual elsewhere on the island.
For her quilt Sara provided a mariner's compass made from batiks as an inspiration. This block is "Nova" from "Quiltmaker's 100 Blocks Vol. 2."
It's probably the most complicated paper-pieced block I've ever made and I can't believe that it turned out as well as it did! Paper piecing is always so magical the way it comes together perfectly at the end.
I'd love to make an entire quilt of these but that would probably take eons. One can dream, anyway.
