Question

How to get a row of lines just like this image

I'm trying to create a row of lines that exactly match the shapes of the vineyard lines in this image, but I'm stuck. 

 

 

A blend was my first thought, but the lines quickly get distorted and the curves get ugly.

 

I can get somewhat close with an envelope distort using a custom object (just attempting to do one side), but the lines aren't quite right. They should curve leftward toward the bottom-left, but dont.

 

Here's a copy of the AI file you can download and play with. (I tried to upload it here but am getting an error message.)

 

Thanks in advance for any help!

You need another anchor point in the center of both lines:

@Monika Gause Thank you so much for your help. But, your lines don't align with the image.

I did not use your image as an exact template. I'm showing the principle of how you can get it to work.
