I just made this ~40x48" quilt for a neighbor who has a new baby. The parents chose the colors - remember Sunoco gas stations?

Lovely, good choice of colours and fabric - this one is still on my 'to do' list!!

Love the pattern.

Yeah, about that dense quilting, I haven't much experience doing free-motion and what little I do have was a few years ago. It's inconsistent, there are crossovers, loops and points in the stippling. But I figure babies are good to practice on because they have so many other things to complain about quilting mistakes are well below their radar.

Just beautiful. I love the the fabrics. So bright and cheery. I'm sure the new parents are just going to love it.

Beautiful quilt..love the colors...and, yes, I do remember Sunoco gas stations. My father owned 2 stations way back in the 60's. We still have a few around here with their blended pumps.

Jennie, as I recall Sunoco's color theme was vivid blue and yellow. Is that right?

Good pattern for a baby.

very nice job!!!!

Sunco ! We have a Sunco gas pump (all shiny blue and yellow) in our garage (restored by DH) !

SunOco - the "O" is for oil! Sun Oil Company = Sunoco

Blue and yellow - remember when the world wasn't afraid of color?

I remember them but they weren't on the west coast. Cute quilt.
