Designed as an upscale commercial building in the High Victorian, Italianate style, the Hoyt Block was constructed for a prominent Cleveland lawyer and land developer, James Madison Hoyt and his son, Colgate. Besides naming 100 Cleveland streets, Hoyt was also one of the founders of the Cleveland Female Seminary.
The architect, Walter Blythe, was in partnership with his father-in-law, Charles W. Heard, one of Cleveland's preeminent architects at the time. The two went on to design the First United Presbyterian Church of Erie Street (East 9th) and the Case Block (Superior and Wood Streets).
One of the few remaining stone buildings in the city, the Hoyt Block also has, at street level, cast iron columns capped with carved stone capitals. The structure's windows are deeply recessed and are framed with segmented or rounded arches. When constructed, the building was significant because it employed one of the first hydraulic elevators in Cleveland.
The structure's first occupant was the E.M. McGillan Company which sold suits and cloaks, carpets, notions, draperies and other such items. The names of the building owner and his son can be seen in relief just below the cornice. Renovated in 1987, the Hoyt Block now houses modern offices. The Hoyt Block is listed on the National Register of Historic Places and is a Cleveland Landmark.

I finished this months ago, but didn't block it. It looks so much better now that the peaks & valleys of the lace can be seen.

April blocks for Love circle of do. Good stitches bee.
Blogged: www.needleandspatula.com/2011/04/do-good-stitches-april-b...
the first block is complete ('though not sewn together). I have 4 of them (means 4 of 12). As the other are different they'll look different.
As I discovered too late that the 1/4 inch feet of the sewing machine doesn't sew 1/4 inch seam allowance without adjusting the needle position they are not easy to piece together as there's some space missing. My blocks measure a little bit more than 22 inches. I don't know what they should but am pretty sure it's more.
Yep. That's all fish the man is crouching on. It is around two metres square at the base, covered in salt, and smells like... well, like a giant block of salted fish. It's certainly one of the more unusual sights I've seen so far...

Not sure if I'll turn this into a mini-quilt as the sew-along suggests or put the three together into a table runner?!? Or pillows?!?
Whatever I do, I'm smitten and can't wait to do 2 more :).

So partner, would you want sashing between the blocks, or as is? At the moment it makes an 18" pillow
Remember these picture blocks? I love them! I remember having a set when I was a kid. Each side had a puzzle from a fairy tale, so the blocks made 6 different picture puzzles. The inside of the box top shows one of the pictures, and then the other pictures are included in the box.
I found these at a little antique shop and I'm not sure if its the same set I had as a kid, but pretty close. I went on and on about them and then my daughter gave them to me for Valentine's Day! : ) A big surprise since she hates antique shops and doesn't usually listen to what I say in them... only asks when we can leave.
Love these blocks!

Further Notes: Prior to the Digital Age, newspapers, books, posters, tickets, forms, and all other types of printed-paper were produced with a printing press. To form the words, moveable type was used and print blocks would be used along side to add images or decorations around the text. A print block is also known as a letterpress cut or a printing die.
