the two pieces are only connected at the top block ... I hand quilted and embellished the top piece..

Looks as if you have been having a lot of fun and games! Love the embellishment on your hanging.
You always make me laugh and I needed one today with that truck out front of your door. I love the banner and the chop key. I love that you get your projects done. I am off to start finishing my projects - you have inspired me.
Hope I don't see your street going into orbit on tonight's news!! :o) Those chopkeys look cute.. I've never seen one before. I live a sheltered life. Great use of some of your blocks.. they are lovely.. so is your banner.
(Blooming iPad thinks it knows better). I'd meant to say...
Did you have to use the digger to get out of the house? I like the chop key blocks, might have to have a go at that.
Were you allowed out? Or were you expected to stay put until they finished their digging?
Chopkey looks interesting and different..
Love the banner, great way to use your blocks, did you manage to get out the door ok???
