London Roads, revisited



Here's a block for Anita's quilt in the Around the World Quilt Bee. Some of her other blocks are pictured to the right - I didn't photograph all of them as the only place they fit is my living room floor and people were doing things in the living room right now... She started with the block with the earth on it, and the words Around the World Quilt. Some others have done a world or place theme, other have just made a block to match. I went back to the London Roads block and did a slight variation on it - it seemed suited. The central fabric in the block is a small square of fabric with Big Bens on it (unfortunately, I only have a few small squares of this - it was a remnant of a project done by someone else in the first place); the others are just coordinating colours - and of course, some handbags, because if you are going on a trip, you definitely need them! The rest of the day was taken up with non-sewing things - famers' market, laundry, pumpkin carving, and so forth. Perhaps tomorrow I will get the rest of those green & purple blocks sewn together...

I had to pop over to your family blog and check out the pumpkins. Awesome! Love the costumes too.
