We Have a Convoy!

My friend asked me to finish a quilt she was gifting to a family friend who is a long distance trucker. When she dropped it off she said "just some meandering will be okay". Once I got it on my frame I knew "just some meandering" was not enough. Some quilts speak to me an this simple one was one of those being as I knew who the recipient was. And as is my wont I included 3 cartoons: The truck that has a MISSION, the truck that just wants to get HOME and of course, the truck who is his MISTRESS!!
I know my friends have a sense of humour and this will be with the gentleman for a long time. MaryKatherine |

How special is this quilt, espacially as you know the person that it is going to, awesome.

Really great job!

I love how the trucks aren't real obvious at first. He will surely be delighted when he discovers them. I know what you mean about how some quilts speak to you, especially when you know who the recipient will be.
|
Great quilting job and how special you are to include something especially for this long-distance hauler. You are a talented quilter!! My DH, who has been gone for nearly 3 years used to say, he hauled from water to water. I know he would have loved your quilting job and am sure the recipient of this quilt will too.

Beautiful quilt, gorgeous quilting.

You did a very good job on the quilting. I love the trucks you included.

I love this! I was a trucker for 20 years & now make quilts for truckers on occasion. Where did you find the trucks? Inquiring minds need to know!

Love the trucks! Great design features.
I often felt that DH 's truck was a very demanding mistress! |
