Hey, that is gorgeous. I am sure he will like it.

If your dh does not like this, mine would. He is a train nut also. As to other inquiries re train fabric. Very hard to come by. It seems fabvric designers prefer other things then trains. Probasbly not as old as those of us who grew up with lots of trains everywhere.

SOOOO beautiful!

Mind sharing info on the center panel? I know someone else who likes trains and would like to make a quilt with the same panel. It would help me to find it if you gave the name and maker. If you purchased it online, I'd really appreciate the name of the site.

there is a website posted on page 3 of the comments where sandybeach found the panel. I got mine at favoritefabrics.com but when I checked the other day, there were out of stock. Good luck in your search.

Here's another website that has the train panel -

He loved the quilt!! I also made him an apron to wear when working on his railroad - It was tans with pockets made from the steam trains border fabric and ties from the railroad track fabric. He was in awe!!
