Amber of One Shabby Chick made this pretty quilt (top shown). I adore how she adapted a herringbone quilt pattern by Carolyn Friedlander to make this quilt her own. She shows lots of photos and a closeup of her quilting stitches. Click HERE to see more.

Herringbone was first employed in the Roman Empire, where it was used in buildings with roads. Herring fish inspired the Romans to create herringbone patterns, which provided remarkable infrastructure to their empire and now beautiful designs to our quilts.
