This week I took Morisson's Jig, made it fit 7/4 (hence trash jig name - as in someone after one too many (probably just one) Irish trash cans trying to play jig/slip jig)
Mix... is there. It was fun, might try it again.
I'm not happy I quite lost original's vibe, but that might have been because of changing time sig

THIS IS AWESOME.
I've played Morrison's at a bunch of gigs, and I love this take on it...going into a staggering time like 7:4 is a great idea. The vibe of the original is those rapid fire triplets so this is going to be different...but I don't think you lost anything. The melody is recognizable, and you put it into a really different context. Sort of like how so many orchestral pieces are based on variations on a theme. Creative, loved it!
This is cool, your search for odd patterns seem to really yield good results and you are mastering it. Nice work @dreat.
This is neat, even if the 7/4 really messes up the jigginess.
Here's to trash.

Thank you! And appreciate you actually finding my submission after we briefly discussed jigs on discord.
Big thank you for kind words

Merci again 
WB has been amazing for me so far and I can see me improving quite a lot. Yet still so much to try, learn, experiment
