Description:
Using the Log Cabin pattern, I made an original design, placing a star in the center, creating a curve using off-center blocks, and placing diamonds on the outer side. The design was inspired by my gentle father-in-law, who passed away three years ago and who would have walked among the flowers of heaven.
