    This one's for me!
    WOW! I am happy for you :0) It's gorgeous! You should be proud. Sarah

    I didn't exactly have a pattern...was copying a wreath I'd seen in my LQS and used EQ7 to help with the layout. In retrospect, I wish I'd made the red center squares of the log cabins smaller (I cut 2" squares, but would prefer 1.5" squares, which is the width of the strips). As I said above, the ribbon border is from the Victory Quilts book, but now, looking at the picture, I would have done the corners a bit differently (I'm surprised I didn't notice that in the EQ7 picture).
