    Default Truckin' Pinwheels
    I made this quilt for my DH, he is a truck driver and uses it in his truck bunk. I just quilted it with a wavy decorative stitch on the seam lines used a twin size sheet for the backing. Needs to be sturdy since it is used and abused and washed a lot.

    I really think that your husband will get good use out of this very manly quilt. Have only made pinwheels once and threatened not to ever do them again. Of course I will eat those words! Nicely done

    Question your label
    Quilt 4 means your 4th quilt complete?


    good idea

    Great Job! I am sure he will love it. I really like the wavy quilting you did on it. I never would have thought to do that. Thanks for sharing
