the layout is my design. the first star is the ohio star, which i know is in the public domain. i got the second star by fiddling with the first. i suppose there's a slight chance it's an original variation, but i wouldn't be suprised to find it is also out there somewhere in the public domain.

i will eventually package the pattern for sale. (i have more than a half-dozen "eventuals". :lol: ) if i ever get my inventory of for-sale patterns up to snuff, i'll risk getting my ego smooshed by shopping a few around to magazines. letting a few go for "cheap" would be good publicity. for now, though, i'm sitting in the bowl with kathy's chicken. :lol:

I was going to call it Mine, but somebody bought it before it was done. Soooo ... I've named it to honor PrettyKitty, because she was the first to suggest a name; and to honor those who also had ideas based on stars and/or flowers. It is:
