2026 - Little Cars - Quilt 03

Another quilt finished 2026-03.

The topper was donated to Project Linus and I picked it up at the May Sewing Day.

I decided to just back it with fleece to turn it around in good time.

The red fabric is little cards with faces. The other squares are lime green and purple blocks.  Works really well.

I got some red fleece and cut it roughly to size and pinned it with my quilting pins.  I put red thread in top and bottom and sewed around each red car square 1/4" from the edge.  That meant no crossing of stitches which worked out really well.

I then squared up the topper and trimmed the red fleece to 1.5 inches from the edge of the topper.  I ironed down the folded over edge to the back.

I used purple thread top and bottom to sew down the binding.  I used the curvy stitch on my machine and sewed from the front with the edge on the 1" mark. That brought the stitching right along the edge of the binding on the back.  This blanket will be delivered back to Project Linus this week.  It measures 39" W x 54" L which puts in the Toddler/Child size and with the little cars that works really well.
