GM C6441 Black, Model T Cars by Timeless Treasures Fabrics<-- model T fabric or Pacific Fabrics has it, as does EBay
t
The first quilts fabrics are called "Vintage Cars". This fabric came out last year.

I know have the Model T quilt sandwiched, so I may get started on quilting today.

I made these because we have cars.
I drive a "23 Model T, Roadster, Stock. I have won a couple of awards with her.
DH drives a 27 Touring, stock.
We share the 26 Tudor, stock with original upholstery and paint.
It has windows all the way around so we can get our fix in the winter.

It was a free pattern I printed off the internet. I would look it up but I have loaned the pattern out already.
This was another quick and easy one to do. I am definitely keeping this one.

The fabrics are Timeless Treasures. If you notice the model T fabric is directional so I made the cars fan out from the center. The pinwheels were suppose to be a color with white. I did not want too much white in this quilt because of the way it was going to be used.

There is enough of the model T fabric for the backing. Again, another top waiting for me.

We have 3 Model T's. I will use this one in the car to stay warm. Often we travel to picnics and there is not room for chairs so a quilt on the ground will have to do.

Wow. I love the colors and fabrics in this one. Lucky person who gets this.

Oh no OHNO!! My sewing machine is broke.
For the model T quilt I wanted to put my model T RW designs in the squares for quilting.

I loaded the designs, hooped the quilt and the embroidery section is all off kilter.
I really hope this is not an expensive fix.

I dropped everything on the floor, walked out of the room and shut the door.
A few days later I went back in to restart the machine. I was double checking to see if it was really broke or I was having a bad day.

the answer to that is "Both".

This is an Ebay link.
I am sharing it because it is the Timeless Treasures Model T fabric I used in one of the quilts.
I have my share of this fabric, so it is time to share.
