My VW Bug quilt for my husband

I was able to collect many cloth license plates from places I visited during the Row by Row specials this summer. As a VW bug was our first car many years ago, I created my version of our 1963 Bug. He loves it and I love to see the smile from our visitors to this idea. It is backed with minky and very soft.
Have a wonderful 2015 sewing year!

I'm a great lover of the old VWs! My dad had a '62 convertible and it was a gem of a car! Your guilt is absolutely fantastic! Brought a big smile to my face! Thanks for sharing it with us!
