Possible S Block for the Alphabet Bitty Block Swap :) I thought about going the geek way - ya know Star Wars w/ Stormtroopers or Skywalker or Solo or even Darth Sidious...
But I think a Snail with Snapdragons in Spring is more simplistic, easily done... and well cute!

I found a paper piecing template for this 12" Spinning Stars block made by a Flickr member in this discussion. It was evvver so slightly off, but easy to fix and I'm really happy to have found it.
ETA: Here's the template!
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.

Part of 'i have to say' monthly sew-along {ihavetosay.typepad.com/randi/2012/01/fresh-squeezed-sew-a...}.
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 :).

Wreath. After I photographed it, I realized the lower half seems to lean due to the way I placed the pattern on my scraps. Oops. I still like it though.
Leanne - I'm so sorry these are late. I did struggle with the horizontal print blocks so please feel free to remove them if they aren't right.
Our friend Sheryl the landscaper always complains about hedges trimmed to "blocks and balls". This would be her hell.

I created the blocks, and the Jackson Bottom Wetlands Preserve, Summer Green Teens, stuffed the holes. Paper was used.
The bees will only lay their eggs in holes of a specific size; in this case 5/16 inch. Using paper also keeps open the option to harvest the bee eggs, clean them (of some potentially nasty mites) and store them until spring.
The blocks need their cool roofs, then they are ready to be hung outside in the early spring.
This is my Blocked fabric design in charcoal gray, bright pink, lime green and white. It's available at Spoonflower:

In case you're wondering what size the pattern is, the distance between the lime green striped lines is about 8 cm or 3"
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!

Accession Number: SH.2009.213
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.

104 Commercial Street, Nanaimo, BC.
Description of Historic Place:
The Gusola Block is a triangular, two-storey vernacular building located on the main downtown thoroughfare. The historic place is confined to the building footprint.
Heritage Value:
Designed and built around 1937 by local contractors, the Gusola Block is a typical commercial building of the period. With a few notable exceptions, most of Nanaimo's buildings were not architect-designed. The Gusola Block's blend of architectural styles exemplifies the predominantly vernacular nature of Nanaimo's architecture and underlines the city's modest, working-class character.
The Gusola Block represents a shift to a more modern building style as exhibited in other buildings of the era including the B.C. Hydro Building (1941), the Eagle's Hall (1934) and Tom Brown's Autobody (1937).
The Gusola Block is an excellent example of a building designed to fit an irregularly shaped lot. The triangular lot was defined by Nanaimo's original topography; until the inner harbour was filled in the 1960s, this lot followed the line of the original waterfront.
The Gusola Block forms part of a significant cluster of heritage buildings located at a prominent intersection on the main downtown thoroughfare.

Character-defining elements of the Gusola Block include:
-All of the elements of the building's vernacular style including the California Mission style curved parapets and the Art Deco/Moderne style flat walls, flat roof, and decorative tile work.
-the triangular form and simple massing of the building.
-the location on the main downtown thoroughfare within a grouping of heritage buildings.
