Wood: Black Walnut
Finish: Teak oil
I made a quilt rack like this with pine (4th picture) more than 10 years ago. This week I made five copies of that one with some natural edge Black Walnut boards. I’m getting ready for a craft bazaar.

Very nice. These should draw some serious interest at your craft bazaar.
I am thinking that next time you may want to consider making an arch in the bottom of each side to form 2 seperate legs per side instead of the straight bottom piece. This would allow it to stand on carpet and uneven floors better without rocking.
