In progress. I printed the completed block yesterday, so I'll post photos of the finished print soon.
Block 6 in the Layer Cake Quilt Along. I didn't notice if it had a proper name but, to me, it's the factory icon from SimCity :)
I'm now pondering on what other icons could make good quilt blocks!
I handstitched this quilt for my friends twin girls. (2007) It is an alternating mix of funky Batiks and traditional Calicos.
hiphop (pronounce for portuguese: hippihoppi) festival on a sunday afternoon in bairro feitoria of sao leopoldo. the guy in the wheelchair is walter, the organizer and head of the local hiphop-graffiti-movement. the festival was held on the street in the center of the bairro, unluckily the rain ended the party very early.......but to be continued
This is a little closer view (a little wiggly on the grass). It LOOKS similar to applique, but it is inset. This block went together, from cutting to stitching to ironing the finished block, faster than the log cabin blocks I made in a different quilt!
i shot my second girls varsity basketball game at my school tonight for the school paper. this was one of my favorite shots.
Ok folks, here they are for the taking. Find them, keep them, trade them. Find them all and you can put then together for the whole image.

Acrylic on wood by street artist ELBOW-TOE.
A bunch of plastic blocks donated to me by Plasti Fab in California. I have machined these blocks into some of the part I need for the Reprap Darwin.
I just about exhausted my supply of tiles on this project (there will probably be a Bricklink order in my future). All blocks of the same color are constructed identically and each block has a symmetrical tile arrangment. I was sad that I had such a dearth of blue tiles that I could not even muster one blue block (but some how I managed an orange one?!?)
The ratio of the sides of the wooden blocks is 1:1:8 which makes for a very loose fit. For the Lego blocks I used a 1:1:7 ratio since Lego bricks are made to more exact tolerances. This allows for easier puzzle assembly and a completed result that is more snug.
This is my block for the Fat Quarter Stars Quilt Along. I am using Kona Maize for my solid and 'the stash' for the prints. Great block designed by Konda.
This fire hydrant is to be found at the side of the newly renovated Breithaupt Block in downtown Kitchener. The old part of the building was the Merchant's Rubber Co., (1903) the first rubber company in Berlin. (Kitchener prior to 1916) It appears to be the oldest known hydrant in the city.
