As of today I have three hellishly long days at work, I will re-surface again on Sunday morning to catch up with all blog reading. See you then ;-)
oooh, love the Mondrian-type block! I am very impressed with your nice straight narrow strips. And you are welcome :-D
ReplyDeleteI love your LMQG interpretation!!! Well done!

Oh lucky you! I was admiring charlotte's mini the other day (it is so you!) Love your challenge quilt, very cool!
ReplyDeleteLove the minis - the one you made and the one you received. Best of luck on your shifts. If it all gets you down then just think of me in a freaking tent in the Lake District under duress at the best of times, but in this weather?!!
ReplyDeleteOooh! That was for you! Lucky girl :o)
ReplyDeleteThe top block reminds me of the Partridge Family bus, but that's probably dating myself.
ReplyDeleteI think your mini is fabulous and very creative!! I think it would make a great cushion or wallhanging....great piece of art.
ReplyDeleteI really love the Mondrian block - and that mini is fantastic, you must be pleased it was for you! Perfect for your sewing space!
ReplyDeleteMondrian, and Charlotte - both fab x

ReplyDeleteYour block is awesome! I may have to take this idea and present it to our MQG as a challenge idea. I think it would look great as a mini.
