My friend Annalee asked me to quilt this fun herringbone quilt about two months ago.
She asked me to quilt a wood grain pattern on it to match the wood grain fabric in the blocks and the border.
Ummm....I hadn't ever quilted wood grain before, so I needed to do some research to find out exactly how to do that!
Luckily, I found a few images and blog posts featuring this pattern, so I looked for a bit, taking some of those ideas and evolving it into my own style, practiced on paper for a few minutes, and then went for it!
It's just some organic lines with some knots and forks here and there. It was such a fun pattern to quilt, and I think it turned out so awesome!
She had a brown chevron minkee for the back, which makes the quilt so thick and cuddly!
Thanks for letting me quilt this fun quilt, Annalee!
