Paper-pieced star pattern from HotPinkPeonies blog.
Tomorrow's Abe Lincoln's birthday.
Lincoln was born February 12, 1809.
We can celebrate President's month with
a free star pattern you can download at
Ellen's site.

In my BlockBase program of historical published quilt patterns
I show 5 similar pieced patterns that you can print out
for paper piecing if you like.
Ellen's original star is more complicated than the older patterns.
Quite a clever design.
