The grass is NOT greener on the other side!

The Art Group 
I'm in is doing another challenge!

We're calling it...

ROAD TRIP


The rules...

1. finish 20" square
2. have a road going from left to right
3. NO rules!
4. HAVE FUN!

So...
As everyone is talking and deciding what to make...
nothing really clicked for me.
THEN...
I thought of times I've driven in the middle of no where.
There have been beautiful fields, streams, flowers....
Let's combine all this and make a field of flowers 
with a stream and bridge!

Here's the start of it...

I'm part of  a corner piece.

In laying some of the squares out,
 we realized my road should be changed...
The top of my road needed to be lower so another 
section can attach to it.

Here's why my road needed to be adjusted ...

With my road so high in my block, it doesn't allow another block to fit in,
it's too close to the row above.
Dang it!

So...
Let me reconfigure my road!

BUT...

Look at ALL the GREAT Road Trip blocks!
We have Mickey Mouse,
Sail boats,
Dump Truck,
Swamp,
Arizona Hot Air Balloons,
Toyota Car Lot,
A Beautiful house with flowers,
American Land Marks...
WOW!!!
WOW!!!
WOW!!!
I'm TOTALLY impressed!
FABULOUS JOB everyone!!!!

(And there are many more blocks not shown here.)

I can't wait to see this displayed at
 Univ. of South Alabama Library - 3rd floor
In the beginning of  March!

Come see the Art Group display!!!

Sew the pieces of life together!
They make a BEAUTIFUL quilt!
