No more sneak peeks - time for the big reveal of my newest quilt. Introducing Monster Truck Jam!

Monster Truck Jam features three different monster trucks racing over dirt hills -  I think I've designed a quilt to please a lot of guys!

Of course, I'm not the only one stitching with men in mind. Please visit these other creatives showing off their guy-themed projects today.

Just Let Me Quilt


Kathy's Kwilts and More


Patchouli Moon Studio


Food for Thought


Though I love all of my trucks, this truck, called Piper, is my favorite! It really made me say 'Oh! This is just too cute' after both designing it and stitching it up.

I seriously had a ton of fun designing these monster trucks, and have decided to make them available in my QuiltFabrication Etsy shop as a individual stand-alone block patterns. Along with Piper,

there's also Crusher,

and Hatch.

Instructions include all diagrams, sewing techniques, and cutting charts for fat quarter friendly 15" x 11" finished blocks, suitable for a confident beginner quilter. They would be great as a pillow or set with even more trucks for a totally different quilt.

These trucks and hills complete my twin size quilt for a 66" x 85" finish, making it a perfect addition to any truck lover's bed. Seriously, it's all about the trucks!

Not only does it looks great on a twin bed, I love this draped photo which amplifies the angles of the trucks.

Using the same blocks, I've also designed a 56" x 75" lap size, and a 45" x 58" crib size for the little ones. The full Monster Truck Jam pattern for all three sizes is now available. Stitch up some trucks for that guy in your life!

Happy Quilting!
