Quilt Rack

 

  Several years ago I made a quilt rack for out bedroom.  I think I made the rack before I owned a band saw or even a jig saw.  It was all straight lines and worked okay.  For years blankets and quilts were hung on this rack.  


  A while  I decided that the rack did not please my eye. I wanted to improve the line of the design.



  I used my jig saw to cut some of the wood away and give the rack a bit more interesting shapes. After cutting away the  wood I used my Bosch Colt router with a round over bit to add detail to the edges.


The rounded edge and contrasting colour made for a nice effect, I think.

  This project shows me how much my woodworking skills and tools has changed over the years.
