I saw someone on MQR quilt this up and it was so freakin' adorable...i HAD to have it. ordered the pattern the same day. now my top is done and i can hardly wait to get it quilted. it will be so much fun. the pattern comes with 2 ways to do it....the 5 rows (on the left) or a top with alternate checkerboard squares and some of the turtles. i wanted to do ALL the turtles in one top....so i improvised.
Little train chugging down the tracks. love the smoke...HAHA.... middle car has veggies...not sure that is kid friendly. hahaha...caboose has animals in the windows. just to be clear...the pattern did not call for things in the windows...that was my improvisation. the pattern windows were just empty.
WHAT?? ... a rooster is running the train...hahahahaha ...backwards
And Spiderman is in the helicopter
A sick teddy bear with a patch on his tummy is in the ambulance
A camper is stopping at the gas station. check out his tongue sticking out. don't know if that is for the gas or the food.
Still have some embroidery to do in places. the signboard says things like..gas, food, snacks, soda, lotto. sign on top says food. left pump says reg; right pump says prem.
And what's the beach without an ice cream truck. also have to stitch the turtles eyes and mouths.
Police car and fire truck.
Need a semi to bring all those supplies to town.
Speed Limit 1 MPH hahahahaha
The gingerbread family is taking a ride in the taxi.
This was a hoot to create. i'm thinking i might make another one of these some day. i have ideas. i do need to find some fabrics with little 1 and 2 inch people and animals to put in the windows for vehicles and houses. it's going to be fun to quilt this up.
It's a fusible applique...so, although there were hundreds of pieces, it went together rather quickly. and i only got 1 set of eyes on under instead of over the face. and only 1 set of eyes on upside down and stuck to the iron. hahahaha not bad, huh?
This is an Amy Bradley design. i think she needs to create this same concept with other animals. i do have a penguin pattern called Penguin Paradise that is hers, too. maybe that should be the next fusible applique project.
For now, i better go finish up some UFOs.
Later
