Love it! This just confirms that little boys never quite grow up, doesn't it?

this is pretty cool. I like the way you incorporated the embroidery into the quilt. i always wanted to do this but haven't as yet. Love the tractor patterns.

I love it, I quilted a tractor quilt and when them came to pick it my DGS nearly cried.

This is a lovely quilt! Job well done.
