I would either add a border around each tractor and then square up the blocks, or cut the other "squares" the same size as the tractor blocks. I recently made a tractor quilt for a baby. The mother did the entire nursery in these prints and colors. I thought it was awful until I saw it all put together. While not something I would choose, it looked great for a baby boy.

I like the tractor blocks. I would make them 9 inch blocks so no one will notice the slight addition in height to the bottom of the block. IF you wanted to add a different block, I would make sure that it was a hay wagon or a combine or a disc or a plow or something similar. I agree that a little boy is not going to be looking at pinwheels as a windmill unles you actually make a windmill. You are very creative so you will figure it out. IT WILL LOOK GREAT!

OH DUH!! I should have read everything before answering. I like the idea of wonky blocks...that way you could add some black or yellow around each block and it doesn't matter if it is square or not. I saw someone looking at John Deere fabric just the other day, so there should be something that you can add to make wonky blocks. Then you have solved one problem of the blocks being "katty-wampus."

If I were a boy and loved tractors, this would be in bed with me every night and maybe even hanging out with me during the day. It looks great. Take care.

I like it a lot, and my three year old grandson would love it!

That is a great little boy quilt.

I made a similar one with the JOhn Deere tractors on it. Definite boy quilt.

I have some of those tractor blocks, I don't think it is garish, kids like bright colors. The print around the blocks has veggies so maybe use a farm scene in the other blocks or strips. John Deere tractors are used on farms so anything that represents farming or the colors you would think of when you think of a farm would work. I mixed mine with some fabric I found at Joanne's that belonged to a bugs line. It had lots of colors and they were in rows and reminded me or rows in a garden but they were kinda of cartoony for a toddler. It was weird but it worked and the child loves it.

Very cute! A real boy's quilt.
