    I looked to see if someone was going to mention the Carpenter's Star, which I have always loved.
    This is a beautiful little table topper cw!

    Very pretty and nice color combination too. I think I just might have to make this for my block swap! Hope my swap buddy isn't reading this post! Ha!
