(...) Wow! I saw the two at Brickfest, but all of them together (thus far) is such a spectacular view! And to know that they're the Provincial flowers on top--that's just pure-D-icing on the cake. Nicely done! Dave K (20 years ago, 28-Oct-04, to lugnet.build.mosaic, FTX)

(...) Apparently you do ;) Very nice work Janey. Now how exactly did you "magically end up" with those trans pink bricks? Enquiring minds want to know! ROSCO (20 years ago, 28-Oct-04, to lugnet.build.mosaic, FTX)

(...) A very kind AFOL (that shall remain nameless to protect his identity) that hates pink "donated" them to my collection. I'm glad I found a use for them, and thankful for any bricks that come my way. Janey "Red Brick" (20 years ago, 28-Oct-04, to lugnet.build.mosaic, FTX)

(...) Hi Janey, Very nice! If I had so many trans bricks, I would make a mosaic large enough to fit inside my window, just to let the sun shine through it! It's nice looking at your MOC for inspiration... Nelson (20 years ago, 29-Oct-04, to lugnet.build.mosaic, FTX)
