OT, Lap Quilt
I thought I would share a couple of photos of a lap quilt my wife made me. Here is the front.


This is my favorite block with the '46 Sportsman and the '46 Mercury wagon


Here is the back.


I think she did a fantastic job!
Thanks, Mark

Here are a couple of more close ups of the other blocks.




Thanks, Mark

Awesome ... it's all cloth, right?, so where did all the art work come from?

Thanks guys for the compliments, she did do an awesome job. The fabric is printed fabric that we bought at various quilt shops over a couple of years.
Thanks again, Mark

The quilt looks great Mark. Thanks for sharing. I'm sure it will become a cherished family heirloom (just like your truck). My wife does quilting--I'll have to get her started on something similar.

Thanks! Jim. It is definitely a keeper, but so is the wife of 39+ years.

Great work! My mom used to do a lot of quilting, but not so much any more.
I wonder if I could convince her to make one similar. I bet she would enjoy looking for the material.
