The pattern is free online.

I will load a picture of the final quilt top too later.
The center is a pillow panel that Walmart used to cary. any 16 inch square will work. The pattern also has ideas on how to make a log cabin star incase you have no center panel.

Very nice. You did a great job.

I'm not normally the biggest fan of log cabin quilts - but THIS is absolutely gorgeous.

great quilt. I know he loves it. My husband is retired Army National Guard. 31 yrs of service. I am proud of your son's service and proud of you for your support to him. Most folks dont realise that the family is in the guard too. take care, another guard family.
