Default bike fan idea

Ok, so I'm am into bicycling. I opened up a box for a new chain and thought. hmm. This could be an interesting quilt pattern. But not with just gray.

​It would make a nice FMQ background fill.

I want to see how you use this. I agree that the pattern is interesting.

Modify an apple core template. Sounds great.

Quilts my Way has a pattern for a bike chain quilt that seems to be exactly what you need. It was published in a recent magazine which I have but can't
Find right now. I will post when I can find it.
