Could not seem to stop making these quilted cutting boards - they gave me an excuse to try out my new planer :D

Made a cutting board for each of my daughters. Used maple, cherry, walnut, pecan and a little bay laurel. I was going to go with straight edges, but I started to like the "pinking shear" look-you know… quilting-> fabric-> pinking shears…. anyway…. didn't know what to use to make my jagged edges professional so I went with the hand-sanded, kind of rustic look.

These are really impressive! Are you related to a guy named Escher by any chance? ;-)

Those look awesome! I have been wanting to make an end grain quilt cutting board for my wife for a few years. Hopefully I will get around to it soon.

Very nice patterns. I like the "pinking shear" edge-unusual but an attractive edge for a quilt cutting board. Well done! What did you put on them for a finish?

thank you everyone! Don-I used cutting board oil for the finish, but I'm always open to suggestion. These were SO much easier to make with a planer…!
