Prague Orloj

For the 24th Sept Tag Tuesday 'clock' theme
 Prague Orloj
Prague Astronomical Clock 
The clock was first installed in 1410,
 making it the third-oldest astronomical clock in the world 
and the oldest one still working!

 I used photographs which I had taken on two separate visits to prague the background one is in black and white (2002) and the top one colour (2006)

Comments, Patchwork and Prayer Flags

As I sat down at my laptop this morning, with little C packed off to nursery for the morning I had full intentions of going out to my little studio to find another unfinished project to get on with. That was until I read the lovely comments about the cake I made for my aunt, thank you so much, all of you! but I can't take credit for the design I saw the idea for the icing effect here on pinterest and pinned it sometime ago to remind me the next time I needed a simple icing idea for my favourite Victoria sponge recipe. 
 I'm so glad I clicked on the link to Jan's blog and saw and read about lovely prayer flags that she and others are making, I was lost on a journey reading all about them and I want to make some now! 
 This is my little mini quilt which I finally finished the binding on last night. I put it away after completing the applique some time ago and blogged about here.
 I decided I would make it in to a wall hanging and perhaps display it in my little caravan.
I have been meaning to make bunting for my little caravan too but perhaps a string of prayer flags would be nicer and more meaningful.
Have a lovely day, its raining and windy here,I hope your weather is better x
