My version of Old Blue by Laura Heine

I started this in 2019 at a Guild weekend workshop. It was set aside until this year when it popped up as my August UFO. I was determined to get it done.

This is the truck in Elizabeth & Ray’s garage that inspired me.

There is something on this for everyone. The truck, obviously, for Elizabeth and Ray, a cat for Madison, butterflies for Asher, lizards for Gavin and daisies in the wheel wells for Elizabeth.

There is even a squirrel – the nemesis in Elizabeth’s garden.

This piece will be entered into the Guild’s 2015 Quilt Show.

This was started in 2019 at a Guild weekend workshop but wasn’t touched for several years, until 2024. The old trucks at the end of a parade were always my daughter’s favourite so this will be gifted to her. I quilted it on my domestic Janome.
