I live in an 187-year-old house. The middle section was a log cabin at one time. I dedicate this quilt to all the pioneer women who went forward with their families to the untamed Frontiers. The red in the center is meant to celebrate the heart and hearth inside the home. A log cabin is certainly a symbol today of a very simple yet very tough life back then. We should never forget all those that came before us and endured so much so that we can have the life we do today.
