I made this for my friends grandson. I often buy fabrics that I think are cute and then wonder why; but hold on to them and eventually they are perfect. My friend owns a construction company and the little boy's father is a builder. This was their first child and when my friend told me they were having a baby boy the "lightbulb" came on. I knew when I bought this material I would someday have a use for it. Perfect. The red border has nuts and bolts that don't show up well in this picture.

What a great idea! I sometimes buy children's prints, too, knowing that a future quilt is in there somewhere.

Great quilt. I have been looking for tool fabrics, did you find yours online, and if so which site. Thanks

MamaBear61 05-12-2010 09:27 AM

Cute, cute. Every fabric has a purpose, just sometimes we have to wait a little longer to find it.

Maggiesmom 05-12-2010 09:35 AM

no. I bought it at a quilt shop in Franklin, KY.

Love it, you did a great job, this is a perfect example why I hate getting rid of fabric...you just never know.

Really nice quilt - I'm sure the baby will love it for a long time!

What a lovely idea, I think that I'll have to make my
Texas granddaughter one like it, she has a 1 year old son.

The father is a contractor, and my RN granddaughter has
helped him remodel the house they are in now.

I'll have to applique this one, haven't seen any material like
that around here.

Thanks for the idea!
