Favorite Quilt Top

This is probably my prettiest guitar.

I'm appreciating the lack of symmetry in the quilt, and reminds me of a jungle forest

I for one fail to see non-symmetry!

The toggle side the grain starts to tighten up smaller loops tighter pattern, a lot of the book matched look like twins.
this was more of a fraternal twins one boy side one girl side.

Actually even most private stock guitars I’ve seen are never truly symmetrical. The same piece of wood carved down in opposite directions is always going to differ.

It’s not only the grain, but simply looking at the same plane of wood from different directions shows it up differently. One side can look more defined while the other just a little more blurred. From some angles each side is sometimes an inverse pattern of each other - where one side shows up the stain it’s mirror region is dark.

That’s a really nice quilt top you got there.
