I've constructed three of the four skyscrapers thus far. Still have some additional embellishing (including weathervanes!) to do when these are attached to my background linen. As with my other buildings, these three buildings have meaning to my family. My pictures show the actual building and my version, relying heavily on artistic license!

Is anyone doing the light house in Key West, Florida as a "skyscraper"? How about the Southern Most Buoy? I would love to see it!

I'm confused on Big Ben. pieces 6 and 7 do not line up at all. 7 is shorter. I'm looking at the fabric and the paper pieces. Did I miss something?

Look at the photo of the finished Skyscraper. The building is bigger in section6 than section 7. The building tapers as it gets toward the top.
