Block-A-Day 5 – Town Square

Today I continue my quest in creating and posting one block a day of the fabulous That Town And Country Quilt by the lovely Susan Claire. Today is day five of that project, and features another corner block.

This quilt block features both horizontal and vertical house structures turning around the bottom right corner. In the bottom right corner is a park bench.

Every other block is a corner in the first round, so I think of this first round as the town square. These dark buildings show nothing of the secrets within.

The domed-shaped tops are made of glass, and light streams in when the sun shines on them, giving life to a top-floor atrium. I think an insurance company or a suite of attorney offices are here. Maybe a Private Detective has his business in the brown building.

This little corner plot of grass has a rather primitive park bench embroidered on it. A businessman or woman has lunch here, or a grandfather and his grandchild sit here and feed popcorn to the inevitable pigeons.

I think I wouldn’t mind sitting there in the sun with a sweater on myself.
