This quilt was inspired by the Log Cabin Beads pattern by Kathy Hamada
in the Quilt Sampler magazine Spring/Summer 2014.
I was fascinated by the math that creates the circle illusion. The finished width of the logs on one side are half the finished width of logs on the opposite side. Note it is the finished width, not cut width.
Lots of scraps were used to finished this quilt. Yeah!
I tried to incorporate these logs into the scene. Haven't done much of this in my past shots as I've typically just shot the city,water,sky. Not sure how much I like it but I like the idea (def. not an original).

Loggers called drivers used pike-poles (long staffs with an iron spike at one end) to guide the logs along the river and toward their final destination; and sackers looked for any stray logs that became separated from the main drive and guided them down the river.
log shop ramp was lotso fun. I don't think I have ever skated before noon before! Then the sun came out and I walked on the beach and took pictures of surfers. Great vacation day. Time for a nap.
These shots are from my first Flickr meetup. It was with the Indianapolis Group at Eagle Creek Park, on the West side of Indianapolis.
This little cabin is very near to the Earth Discovery Center where we met.
I really liked the light coming through the rafters at the top there. Sorry the windows are blown out, it was considerably darker inside the cabin than out.
This is a very cool National Park southeast of Holbrook, AZ - well worth the detour. Heather Rice and I checked out this park as part of her American Southwest Sampler tour. We started at the southern entrance, stopping first at the Visitor Center and taking some small trails to look at the petrified wood up close and personal. The colors are amazing. We walked to the Agate House - very impressive. All sorts and sizes of petrified wood everywhere - I wondered how much is still there, uncovered. As you drive north, the landscape changes dramatically. Weird looking hills, Blue Mesa, and then you come to the Painted Desert lookouts. I wish we spent more time there but we still had a long drive ahead of us. Guess we have to go back again!!
We visited this park in March 2014.
97303 and 37405 are seen loading the logs at Aberystwyth for the return to Chirk including shots of Vale Of Rheidol No.8 and a Scania Kieron M.Owen log lorry!
The hills along the river were arid and barren,, but the climate along the river was quite benign. We passed a massive log-moving operation near Clarkston.
The logs at the bottom of this little ravine had so much texture that I found photographing them was fun from many different angles.
Please see prevoius shot for wider view.

Aboriginal memorial poles
by Wukun Wanambi
This contemporary art installation by Aboriginal Australian artist Wukun Wanambi addresses a series of important ideas about ancestral power, the significance of land and the search for meaning.
Aboriginal Australian memorial poles – known as larrakitj – are hollow coffins created to hold the bones of the dead in secondary burial. Placed in groups on significant sites and painted with clan symbols, they are left to deteriorate with wind and weather. Contemporary artist Wukun Wanambi (b. 1962) belongs to the Yolngu people of northern Arnhem Land and has worked innovatively with this longstanding art form for over a decade. Art is used by the Yolngu people in ceremonial performances, but also as legal documents and as a way to map the landscape and the relationships between people.
Wukun’s work is an exploration into traditional forms with deep connections to clan, territory and ancestral stories. However, he rejects the polished Yolngu model of a perfectly cylindrical, blemish-free memorial pole, instead allowing the tree’s natural form and flaws to remain visible, with painted fish swimming around and over the surface variations.
The display in Room 3 is a large sculptural work featuring three finished poles alongside three poles revealing the tree beneath. Starting from a raw, unpainted log, this visual progression unveils the sculptural elements beneath the painted clan designs, and references complex religious and philosophical ideas at the core of Wukun’s work.
