Here is a close up of some of the fabrics. You can barely make out the machine quilting I did myself with my regular Elna sewing machine.
Here is a little trick I have picked up along the way. After the quilt is quilted but before I bind it, I run the edges through my serger! Not only does it cut off all the extra batting and backing but it also makes a nice neat thin edge to attach the binding to.
The design for the little trailers that bump down the road along the top of the quilt are available from this Etsy Shop. I did do a few tweaks to simplify the design.
I used colors and fabrics from the quilt.
Love these little trailers! I guess I will have to keep dreaming of another trailer that might someday find at home in my driveway. Sigh!
