Quilt Notes: for ROAD TO TENNESSEE online piecing instructions, see World Wide Quilting. The design is illustrated in Maggie Malone's 500 FULL-SIZE PATCHWORK PATTERNS, 1985, with templates, but is not included in Barbara Brackman's ENCYCLOPEDIA OF PIECED QUILT PATTERNS. As shown above the design uses the same repeated hexagon as THE X-QUISITE, also KANSAS DUGOUT, etc. (see Brackman, on hexagon patterns, page 73).
Compare with TENNESSEE PINE !! Like SNAKE'S TRAIL, geometric path patterns are the basis of many labyrinths and mazes — geometric road-type quilt themes at this site include:
WASHINGTON SIDEWALKS
UNDERGROUND RAILROAD
DRUNKARD'S PATH
ENDLESS STAIR
MIGRATION SOUTH
A WINDING TRAIL
