So I got a bunch of random colored wood from a neighbor who heard the racket I was making and recognized the sounds of a fellow wood guy.

None of the wood was straight, complete or really much of anything. I decided to cut the wood up in 2” thick pieces at equally random lengths for what I call this “Quilted” Barn Wood Dresser.

Outstanding. I really like the ‘fun’ and creative look to it. Very worthwhile!

Absolutely love this! The title caught my eye, because I am a quilter as well as a newby woodworker, and I’m been trying to come up with ways to blend the two. So much character in this piece.

-- No, I don't want to buy the pink hammer.

I don’t want to steal your idea but this is incredible! Thanks very much for sharing! I showed it to my daughter and she gave me the go ahead to make one for her room.

This looks great. Great job turning what could be considered “scrap” into something awesome.
