Handmade quilt square which depicts a waterfall used for powering local grain mill, as part of the 15-panel Heritage Quilt of Cedar Mill. Description from accompanying pamphlet: BLOCK 8 CEDAR MILL FALLS, by Sandy Jandik. The falls is located on the south side of Cornell at 119th and is a beautiful spot to view as the water rushes over the 32 foot high basaltic rock formation. Power for the cedar mill was provided by a large overshot water wheel on the falls. The site was marked by the Valley Heritage Society in 1974. It is hoped that someday the falls can be a community park.
