GM C6441 Black, Model T Cars by Timeless Treasures Fabrics<-- model T fabric or Pacific Fabrics has it, as does EBay
t
The first quilts fabrics are called "Vintage Cars". This fabric came out last year.

I know have the Model T quilt sandwiched, so I may get started on quilting today.

I made these because we have cars.
I drive a "23 Model T, Roadster, Stock. I have won a couple of awards with her.
DH drives a 27 Touring, stock.
We share the 26 Tudor, stock with original upholstery and paint.
It has windows all the way around so we can get our fix in the winter.

This was another quick and easy one to do. I am definitely keeping this one.

The fabrics are Timeless Treasures. If you notice the model T fabric is directional so I made the cars fan out from the center. The pinwheels were suppose to be a color with white. I did not want too much white in this quilt because of the way it was going to be used.

There is enough of the model T fabric for the backing. Again, another top waiting for me.

We have 3 Model T's. I will use this one in the car to stay warm. Often we travel to picnics and there is not room for chairs so a quilt on the ground will have to do.
Wow. I love the colors and fabrics in this one. Lucky person who gets this.

Oh no OHNO!! My sewing machine is broke.
For the model T quilt I wanted to put my model T RW designs in the squares for quilting.

I loaded the designs, hooped the quilt and the embroidery section is all off kilter.
I really hope this is not an expensive fix.

I dropped everything on the floor, walked out of the room and shut the door.
A few days later I went back in to restart the machine. I was double checking to see if it was really broke or I was having a bad day.

the answer to that is "Both".

This is an Ebay link.
I am sharing it because it is the Timeless Treasures Model T fabric I used in one of the quilts.
I have my share of this fabric, so it is time to share.
