Thank you for that great link! The pattern is so simple yet intriguing. As far as quilting goes, instead of SITD, I use the ditch as a guide for the side of my needle and stitch on one side then the other side of the ditch. I avoid that little place where I "go off" the ditch, and it makes a nice little double trail instead. I also love the way the back of the quilt looks with the double lines making a small path. Have fun.
