My son in law works for an implement company that sells Agco Allis and Gleaner Combines and the other evening he mention that he would like to have a quilt made with Combines on it perferably Gleaner NO John Deere. Does anyone know where I can find fabric with Combines on it. He very seldom mentions wanting anything so natually this is something that I would really like to make for him but am having trouble finding the fabric. Please Help...Lollie

I don't know what kind of combine is "Frank" in the movie CARS but I know it's not a Deere. Maybe fabric from the movie might have it. Sorry, I had not heard of the combine you're talking about. Good luck finding.

I thought about that but it would take a lot of pictures but if I can not find what I am looking for that may be the way I have to go. Unless I could find a company that would make the fabric as I have sorta designed something that I would like if I could not find what I want..Thanks ..Lollie

Could it be possible to download something like that and print it out on fabric? I've never done anything like that before, but do remember someone talking about it. I'm not too sure how it would wash, but there must be a lot of folks on this forum who could give you more accurate suggestions.
And how nice that you have a sweet SIL like that. Makes you feel more like your daughter got lucky in the marriage sweepstakes, as mine did.

Whoops..didn't read the letter above before running off at the mouth (or fingers..just washed my hands and can't do a thing with my fingers.)

Only John Deere on our farm. Lots of fabric for the green machines and some available for the red ones. My son took his holidays in the fall to drive a Gleanor for a friend during harvest. If you find some please let me know.

i work for an Agco dealer - we sell Massey Fergusson and Spra Coupes and it frustrates me that i have never found any material with those logos on it.

Specialty images like that are probably licensed, like sports teams or cartoon character items, so maybe if you looked online for the combine manufacturer and emailed them about it they might be able to tell you if they have licensed anyone to manufacture fabric with their equipment images.
