Truck quilt for grandson
 

Several months ago I was looking for a truck pattern to make a quilt for my year old grandson. Someone on this board very kindly sent me the "Keep On Truckin" pattern. I wish I could remember who it was as I certainly owe her a huge thank you.Whoever it was came up with a pattern that not only my grandson likes but his mother loves!

One of my quilting customers had made a truck quilt for their grandson and had embroidery the name of a trucking firm that she had worked for several years ago on the trucks. When she told me about it, that gave me the idea to ask for patches from the businesses that my grandson's family members have or are working for to be added onto the trucks of this quilt. So we have both grandfathers businesses that they retired from; an uncle's business, mom (the policewoman) and dad's business. Finally the quilt is done and has been sent home with my grandson to be ready for his twin size bed; but, not before I got a few pictures.

That is a great quilt...and what a clever way to make it extra special. I love it.

What a great idea! This came out so darling. A family treasure trove of information too!

That came out super cute!! Any little boy would love it.

you did a great job on that... love the patches

Boy do you have a winner here. Any little boy (or girl) would love to have a quilt like this. You did a super job. The patches just make it that more special. BrendaK

I love it when people personalize their projects like you have done! I try to do that too. It makes it so special for the recipient.

This is just adorable and the patches just make it that much more special...............a family history of sorts.

That is such a special quilt and very well done.
