Ad Astra

Ad Astra is a square that I designed in early 2003. The very day that I was preparing to publish the pattern, the space shuttle Columbia disaster occurred. I thought the star design made a very fitting dedication to the space program, hence the name Ad Astra, which is Latin for "to the stars".

Here is the pattern: Ad Astra

G'day Chris
thanks for the sharing of your lovely squares + patterns... I love how your squares tell of a time in your life... they are a bit like a living diary... I often tell time by what I was doing/making at the time... some people laugh but it works for me... hope to see you back on your blog soon... b
