    Default Rail fence

    Sometimes a tried-and-true pattern is all that’s needed..
    img_0235.jpeg
    ‘The light and dark rails and back are from stash. The third rail is 2.5” squares from my scraps, candy exchange, BOOM scraps, scraps from a friend, a donation scrap box from QB member. Do you find something you’ve contributed? Thanks.

    Quilting is SITD. Batting is 1/8” thick cotton.

    Destination is charity.

    Love your introduction of the "scrappy element" to this traditional pattern. So nice.
