Are you just starting to learn the ropes of quilting, and would like to make an easy but brilliant project? Would you like to create a fun and convenient home textile that is great for a young kid’s room? Are you looking for sewing projects that are beautiful, useful and playful? Here is a free sewing pattern by Elise Lea that you are definitely going to love! It uses Robert Kaufman fabric, specifically a panel fabric from their Let’s Go series, featuring colorful vehicles and a winding road panel, to create a really cute quilt…plus some soft toys to play along with!!
Yes, that’s right! This quilt will not only be useful as a decorative item, or to keep any young one warm in bed: it will also work as a soft playmat for some fun toy car racing. Therefore, it makes for a great gift that both parents and young kids will greatly enjoy! We love the car fabric included in the design, featuring construction vehicles and more! Take a look at the images below: you will see the full central panel fabric, with its 8-shaped road among houses and trees, as well as 8 different vehicles on top and bottom rows. We’ve also included suggestions for solid color fabric you can use for the borders and binding. The finished project measures about 142 x 173 cm (or 56 x 68 inches).
We hope you have just found your next sewing project! It is really very easy, in fact it’s recommended for beginners, and should not take long to complete. Do send us your photos of the finished quilt, we would love to see them!
