I'm still behind on the Civil War Quilt project.
Barbra Brackman is sharing her knowledge of fabrics from the era. I did not know big as well as little stripes were popular. The use of a large strip makes this block appear more complex.
This is week 7 and the block is a Log Cabin for Abe Lincoln's Birthday on February 12. We always cut out paper silhouettes of him with beard and top hat at school. I remember this because my B'day was after Abe's and before Valentines Day. Lots happening which made it festive.
Off to quilting group. Enjoy your stitching Terry

Terry, what a fabulous fabric for the centre of your star! Very nice indeed.

Very nice star block. Belated congratulations for your birthday!
OOOOOH Happy Birthday!!!! in our family we passed a by-law making birthdays 3 days events: so I am not belated at all! :)
I am so inspired by this star: I love the centre stripe you chose! Well, done, and as long as you enjoy the process, who cares, right?
Sending you a huge birthday hug, a Valentine's kiss and a cuddle just because!

Looks lovely Ter, and there's no such thing as time anymore so as long as you are enjoying it that's all that matters.
