One of the bloggers that I enjoy reading is doing a series of Electric Quilt tutorials. Today she showed how to use a rail fence block to make a piano key type border in EQ. The blogger I speak of is BeaQuilter.
I was inspired to take a quilt design and add an inner rail fence border. Of course once I started playing in EQ (Electric Quilt) I redesigned the quilt too. Ha ha.
Here is the quilt.
I am not totally happy with the inside blocks but I love that rail fence border with cornerstones!

I like your inside design on it's own, probably without any border. It's just so graphic on it's own. I like it, a lot.
Love the rail fence border too, but maybe on another quilt. I love Bea's blog too. Good stuff on there.
that is a sharp looking quilt Gene!
I love it all, border and inside. Gene, for me this is a very fine example of what I love about your workm- it's that unexpected non-symmetrical element. The eye wanders about, and I always find something new to look at. Your pieces almost always provide a journey. :)
great colors!
This is great, Gene! I love it. Are you going to make it?
I like the inside design on this one, and wish I would just take more time to play with EQ. Seems I always have other things as priority.
I think you should make this one.
I love the depth it has....
I like it... what's not to like with Red and blue?? *g*
I love those pieced borders and hadn't even thought of doing it that way. What a great idea.
