I'm amazed you get anything done with those helpers around! LOL
This is the picture I want to do.... I want to do the landscape bit, and have it bordered in black for the window frame.

Wow Cute - what a stunning and innovative use of OBWs. And strips at 1 3/4"? I did 2 1/4" recently and I thought THAT was tiny!!! :shock:
I love it and it represents the photo perfectly. :D
I've got a pic in a magazine from ages ago of something I always wanted to do which is a view through a garden gate to flower borders and a path through the middle. The gate is done in black stained glass applique. In the magazine, the background is done with squares but i like your way much better and may have to steal, if you don't mind! :wink: :D

Oh, I love it. What a challenge you've taken on. And I don't know how you accomplish anything with your helpers! My two big cats are also very "helpful" in the sewing room but being older they are not quite as active. Three kittens? What chaos! What fun! Thanks for sharing the photos...they made me laugh.

Great Pic Blue, I hope that you get to it and we all get to see it.
Thanks Ninnie and Bev. It has been a test for sure getting all these pieces to behave together.
Sharon and Fancy, thank you, and everyone that I may have missed along the way.
K3N, steal away as long as I get to see what transpires from it. I probably should have cut the strips at 2 1/4 with it being a 6 inch repeat, but I didn't want the flower colors to mix in the same block, would have ruined some of the effect I think, though unless someone trys it with more fabric we may never know for sure.

THanks Teacup, the momma cat isn't very old as well so she runs around some times and helps as well, Also there are two dogs that like to get underfoot, right now there is a visiting dog as well that adds to it all.
Visisting help, I am a westie named Maggie

Wow! Lots of critters. I had to laugh again. We had a much-loved Wesite that died recently. She was a sweetheart and is terribly missed. We now have a "used" Black Lab mix we adopted 18 months ago. She's nearly 12. She loves to hang out in the sewing room as well when I'm in there. I think 1 dog and 2 cats is all I can handle right now!
