Project Information
I made this box for one of our avid quilting friends. The box itself is of quilted maple with koa splines. The lid design is called "Star & Pinwheel" and consists of maple, mahogany, padauk, purpleheart, and Chechen rosewood.
I used a homemade miter sled on the tablesaw, with a stop adjusted to provide an exact 1/2 square. The quilt pattern was glued and pressed onto an 1/8" piece of Baltic birch with a secondary veneer of birdseye maple on the other side (not shown).
