An updated version of my 2009 Day on the River pattern, River Run: From the Banks uses batiks from my 2020 River Run Signature Batik Collection with Hoffman California Fabrics. This pattern can be made as an individual pattern as shown above, or combined with the other five River Run patterns to make the complete quilt as shown below. See all my River Run batiks here.

Brown bears fish the Kenai and Russian Rivers in Cooper Landing, Alaska every summer to fatten up on salmon as they swim upstream to spawn. If you spend a day along these rivers you're likely to share your fishing hole with one of these powerful creatures. This one's just about to catch his lunch!

River Run: 6-Block Complete Quilt

River Run 6-Block Complete Quilt

The River Run design was inspired by life along the Kenai River in Southcentral Alaska. The Kenai and its tributaries flow through, and begin, in the many large lakes that support an abundance of life. From mallards and rainbow trout in the Kenai and Skilak Lakes, to the moose that drink from the freshwater, to the bears and eagles that feed off the many salmon varieties that swim up the river, River Run celebrates the wildlife the river supports.
