This is so very special, what a nice thing to do for your niece. And such a good job you did. Super.

Oh my gosh--these are two very fun, VERY fun quilts. How lucky the receivers are to have you in their lives.

Or just start noticing that different truck lines use different colors - examples: England company trucks are red, Schneider was orange, Werner (I think) uses blue. A lot of owner operators buy whatever color tractor (the power unit that pulls the trailer) they want - or is available, if buying used. |
I love the truck quilt!
The frog one is cute, too. |

Great job & remember its like a hug from home on a lonely night. I teamed drove with my husband for 12 years. That was where we LIVED six weeks at a time. A quilt makes it homey and warm when driving up north in the winter. Glad to be at home full time. |
Very cute. I have worked for a trucking company for 15 years or so - so it is near my heart :)

Both of those are so cute. I love the big trucks and the way you personalized it. That baby quilt is so cute. Love them both. You did a great job. And thanks for sharing.
|
Both quilts are beautiful.
|
That is just fantastic! I'm sure that will keep her nice and cozy!!
|
Love both quilts but the frogs are my favourite since I do a lot of kids quilts. Does the frog quilt have a name or is it your own design. Great job on both. Love the colours.
