I've got some drawings, that I thought I might one day trace off and do as redwork... but not pieced quilts..
good luck |

I"m really new to quilting. LOL.... I'm gonna have to look up "redwork" |
try coloring book pages online...

that's a good idea. and I feel silly. I should have looked the "redwork" thing up before I typed. LOL....

Timeless Treasures and Alexander Henry make fabric with antique cars. You could fussy cut them and applique to blocks. Here's a link to search. I typed in "antique cars" and "classic cars" and found some under both. Click on the Advanced search and select view thumbnails.

What about using a picture of one of your Dad's cars? .... would be much more personal, than a generic car quilt!
Take a look at my cow ... and see if that helps inspire you to how to work with a photo ..... http://www.quiltingboard.com/t-114217-1.htm |
I remember seeing your cow and loving it. I might check into that. thanks so much

Good Luck ... PM me is you have questions!

I just bought a Dakota Collectable embroidery CD titled "Muscle Cars of the 60's and 70's. There is another CD that has car older than that. You culd check there if you have an embroidery machine.
