Assignment of the week: Square

The assignment for this week was 'square'. I initially had in mind to travel around Newcastle and photograph anything square that I saw. However, I somehow seemed to end up at a Nature Reserve instead!

After an enjoyable morning walking around in the sunshine and watching the birds, I returned home having failed to achieve my objective. After a cup of tea and giving the grass its first mow of the year I set to searching the house for anything that I could find that was square or cubed. This is what I came up with:

• A potato masher with square holes.

• The kitchen tiled floor

• A travel chess set and snakes and ladders game

• The pattern for my cross-stitch, printed on a square chart

• Wire cooling rack

• A vaguely cube shaped "dice"

• Thread and needle organiser for my cross-stitching projects

• The stained glass on the cupboard door which contains both square and rectangular patterns

• A pile of ever so essential tea bags
