QM Patterns: Nautical Waves

"I doodled this design on graph paper when my family was on a long car trip last year. My mom told me the design could be a quilt if I developed it a little more. So, I drew and colored it on the computer until I liked it."

The two-color quilt shown above was originally made from muted red, tan and blue fabrics for a nontraditional, yet still recognizably patriotic quilt. Complete directions for the original quilt, Patriot Waves, appear in Quiltmaker July/August 2005 (No. 104).
