Huxley is getting sooo long legged, he needed a twin sized quilt. I found this panel at a Fiber Arts meeting I think. Someone was parting with it for a dollar or two and Huxley loves trains.
The panel was not big enough for a quilt, so I added a border I purchased with all types of vehicles on it.
Not quite enough red fabric, so I added blue to top and bottom.
I picked up this fabric as he loves construction equipment as much as he loves trains.
I also picked up a complementary fabric with cartoon type construction equipment.
I bordered those blocks with blue and yellow because his bedroom had blue walls.
I machine appliqued his name on top of the quilt with a blanket stitch in blue.
My gracious and talented sister, Terri, used her long arm to meander around the blocks. In the center she designed a spiral with cogs on the outside.
Not sure which side he will choose as the top.
