my first two block prints. i think i'll get more into this because it was pretty fun and now i know a little more about what i'm doing with it.
I think this one has the most embroidery of all the block so far, so it took a week, but was well worth it.
Frank, Eva, Clara, Lucy, Ruby, Grandpa Block, Grandma Block, Bill, May. Erv, Carl and Chub are in the front. George is missing.
Day 46, February 15, 2011's photo of the day
This quick snapshot was taken during the first blocking rehearsal of 'How I Learned to Drive'. It is also the first published photo I took with my new Verizon iPhone. Not a bad little point and shoot camera.
So...what is "blocking"? In theatre, when actors move around on stage, they are not doing that in an unplanned fashion. Every action an actor takes on stage, from picking up a mug of coffee to casually strolling over to a fellow actor, is planned in advance. This planning of actions is called "blocking". The Director has the actors start practicing this very early on because by the time opening night comes, all the movement on stage must look very natural and unrehearsed. Actors can also use the blocking to help memorize lines, by knowing that when an actor walks to point X on the stage, they are to begin an argument with another character.
So, now you know a little bit about theatre stuff - who knew my little Project 365 blog would educate as well as entertain [y'all are laughing at how bad my photos have been the last few days, right?].

This block has not turned out how i wanted but never mind ,chey will still think it's great because it will be all his! just have to do the other one...it was bit of a fight as i kept forgetting to have right side of fabric up and ended up with pairs! I used freezer paper for the template and it worked really well .
In progress. I printed the completed block yesterday, so I'll post photos of the finished print soon.
Elliot asked that he could have a block party for his birthday so that he could ride his bike in the street.

In the past days, I have been all over the city, which isn't terribly unusual, but somehow I've crossed paths with some major neon signs everywhere I've gone.
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.
