๐ŸššTwo Truck Quilts ๐Ÿšš

Lynn made two more quilts for a couple of lucky brothers!!! 
Quilt Info:
Maker: Lynn
Pattern: 5-Yard Quilt
Size: 65" X 92"
Thread: Glide--Lead Grey
Batting: Quilters Dream 80/20
Quilting: Chevrons 1 ⤵️ from Karlee Porter
Interesting Info: Lynn made this same truck quilt design, with some alterations, for another boy recently--link to that blog post here. She gifted it to him over the Easter holidays and reports it was a total hit!!! They especially loved the rainbow ombre backing on that quilt, which became their beach in the tropics!!! 
I love how "Chevrons 1" quilting looks like tire tread marks!!! ⤵️
The extra-wide backing on this reminds me of heavy-duty tires!!! ⤵️
Here's the second quilt that Lynn designed herself using some panels and coordinating prints!!! ⤵️
Quilt Info: 
Maker: Lynn
Size: 66" X 95"
Thread: Glide--Tar Heel
Batting: Quilters Dream 80/20
Quilting: Squiggle Wiggle ⤵️ from My Creative Stitches
Isn't this a fun city vehicles panel?!! ⤵️
A little more of that extra-wide ombre went into the back of this one! ⤵️
"Squiggle Wiggle" quilting is another great quilting option for a car/vehicle quilt!!! ⤵️
Wonderful, Lynn!!! I can't wait to hear how the brothers like their quilts!!!
Grace & peace!!! ~Nancy

  5. Panels are always appropriate for children, and these are nicely done. They're both a good collaboration between the topper and you, the quilter.

  6. Hi Nancy! Gosh, those two truck quilts are so darn cute. I love how you quilted them. I have a couple of young boys who would love to receive one of these - I am 100% certain they will be well-loved. They already look so nice and soft and squishy, and we all know that improves with age! Thanks so much for linking up for TGIFF. {{Hugs}} ~smile~ Roseanne

  11. Thanks for sharing this post with me. I missed it first time round. I need to write down the sizes you mentioned. I generally have smaller quilts so I’ll need to pay attention to the size. I actually have another quilt ready to go and this might be the perfect pattern for it.
