Cabin Tracks quilt

… is the name of the pattern for this scrappy quilt. Doreen has an amazing knack for using scraps and putting colours together. 

So many things about this quilt intrigue me, like the piano key border whose strips finish at half an inch.
 


Doreen picked the pantograph Blowin’ Wind by Jodi Beamish, and a variegated blue thread for quilting.

As she often does, Doreen incorporated some of the extra bits into the back of the quilt, resourceful and creative.
 

The pattern is from American Patchwork and Quilting, it was their 2003 sampler.  This is one quilt I want to make.
