The star quilt pattern is "Star of Destiny" published by Clara Stone in Practical Needlework in 1906. The 2 applique corners are inspired by Mimbres ceramic designs. One is circ. 1920 from the middle Mimbres river and represents whirlwinds. The second is a representation of large animals. I love using spirals because they are a universal symbol of fertility/continuity.
