      Tracy, I think the addition of the black border was a game changer - the quilt is beautiful❣ Thanks for the tip of using the pencil to anchor the ruler in place when getting ready to draw a diagonal line in the center of a square...can hardly wait to try thar! 😃 And I'm a firm believer of bias on the bottom as well ... super great tip for newer quilters! Great video!

    I live in Minnesota where we have very long cold winters with little to of ice and snow. Car quilts are a real thing here. If you get stuck or end up in a ditch they can be life saving. Car quilts are a rite of passage in my family. As each of my kids and grandkids have gotten their drivers license and first car, they get to choose a car quilt out of my stash of them. Yes.. I have a stash of completed car quilts. They make amazing last minute gifts!

    Hey Tracy! (Somehow I missed watching this video.) No, not had a car quilt, but I used to keep a heavy Mexican blanket (made in Tijuana) in my SUV for keeping warm during kids' baseball or soccer games, or for emergencies. Forgot to lock my vehicle one cold night and found the next morning that it had been stolen. Whoever took it left behind a long wooden stick, which was really odd. Nothing else was pilfered or disturbed. Hey, if a homeless person needed the blanket to stay warm, I was very okay with it being taken. Living in So. Cal doesn't mean that our fall and winter nights don't get cold! Was very happy that I could indirectly help someone who needed something warm. Love your faux-stained glass window look of your car quilt. The black border really framed the quilt perfectly. Great job!!! (Yes, I watched all the way through. 😘)

    I think you said your grandkids will love this. I saw a car in one of the triangles so you could start a quilt game asking them where the car is going, why is it going there and what will it find. Have some kind of a marker so that triangle is used (the one they chose to travel to). Then the next child takes the car or what ever else is in there and goes where? Also, who hung the Christmas lights etc. What a great quilt. So much fun.

    Of course, I fully invested in your video. How could I not? You are always fun to visit. I love how this quilt turned out. You are very magic turning scraps into things of beauty! Right now, I am so jealous. My daughter and I are preparing to sell my property...which means packing everything we don't need for the next few days to make the house presentable. I just put all of my ready to be quilted quilts into a "Magic Bag". That, and extra bedding, backing fabrics, extra towels etc. We may not move for a month or two, which means no quilting for three months, because it will take that much to get everything unpacked and placed in its new home. The best thing about it, is that I will have a large room to put all of my quilting stuff furniture included into one single room. I will be keeping my sanity by living vicariously though you and my other quilty UA-cam buddies!

    I have a car quilt in my car. It’s custom fit to my back seats. I made it for my dog. He goes with me everywhere. He’s a big Shepherd type dog very big. it’s easy to throw it in the washing machine and it keeps his fur off the fabric in the car. I love it. He always gets it disheveled, but that’s OK. It’s his space. 😊

    My Aunt gave me a wool blanket when I moved from LA to the snow belt in PA. She was concerned about us getting stranded in the snow, and we needed something to keep us warm. It came in handy. Fast forward about 10 years, and I made my first mystery quilt. I decided to make it a lap size. It turned out so pretty, so I call it my car quilt or my bus trip quilt for when I go on bus trips with the quilt guild. A few times some of the ladies have had to borrow my quilt. Lol I love your quilt. I have so many novelty Christmas fabrics, and this quilt would be perfect for this quilt. Thank you!

    I had to stop what I was doing to come leave a comment. I think this quilt is one of the MOST beautiful I have seen ANYWHERE in a long time! It looks like a REAL quilt. Like Grandma used to make . Todays quilts are so coordinated that they just look like pictures in a magazine or something that is die cut. To me they are far from what quilts started out to be. This quilt, however, is fantastic!

    I always had a blanket in the car plus I had one of those old fold top beer cases I covered with contact paper and inside I kept coffee, creamer,salt,pepper,paper plates,napkins,plastic silverware,sugar,and some wax candles I made wrapped I twine,a small fry pan,and a small pan. Candles were in the big tuna cans. In another box I kept a one burner, an extra set of clothes. I worked for a motel chain and if the weather got bad we were required to come into motel so they would have a full staff. So I would grab food,the cat,her food and poop box and we were good to go. Not only did I use it for that but it came in handy for picnics.

    We live in Colorado and I take my great grandson to school every day. It gets pretty cold in the winter so I have three scrap quilts in my car and he can choose which one he wants to cover up with on the way to school. I am older so at times I have the AC in the car full blast, so he also uses a Quilts at that time. Haven’t made one like yours yet but I am planning to include it in my inventory. It would be fun for him to wrestle through my scraps and pick out fabrics he wants. Thanks for the great idea.

    What a great idea! I have never thought of using sherpa. I have used various Shannon Fabrics material on the reverse...but pricey. My granddaughter only likes flannel. I am going to piece a front with some of my juvenile & solid flannels. Then I will sherpa the back. I won't put an inner layer in, as she has stated, "Mimi, I like light & fluffy." 😊 A few stitches in the ditches will hold things just fine. I did stay to the end, but in 2 viewing sessions ❤. Thanks for this instructional video. Ohio here 😊

    😊 I did stay with you the whole way. I was like you, not sure I liked it in the beginning, but, yeah, it really grew on me. The kids will love finding all the little picture- treasures in all of the fabrics. Grandma had a car blanket, and I remember it being so very special.❤

    Like this pattern, nice straight cuts. Have way too many "fussy" patterns, will be a nice change. I think the finished top looks fine. Agree that it grows on you.

    When my kids were little (in the really olden days) I used to keep a plastic zippered bag (from a purchased bedding set) filled with blankets in the trunk for lots of reasons. Impromptu picnics, a big spill making it necessary to remove some part of the child’s clothing or getting stranded in the car on a dark and snowy night having to wait for our neighbour to come pull us out of the snowdrift with his tractor. We lived about 1/2 hours drive from the nearest city in a rural farming township. It often was dark and cold on the way home and if you had fussy, cranky little ones, a cosy blanket could work wonders. I **highly recommend ** back seat blankets, but make sure it’s one you don’t mind getting really grungy or getting vomited on or other wise made grungy.

    My 5 yr old granddaughter asked me to make a “truck blanket”. I came up with the idea of using 2 one yard cuts of flannel fabric. We went to fabric store ( with her twin sister and 3 yr old cousin) to pick out their two fabrics. I placed wrong sides together and stitched one inch all around then ragged the edges. Here in south Louisiana we need a little covering for the air conditioning not so much for heater. Enjoy your tutorials!

    Memory Lane.....we did not have ''car quilts'' .... but ''grandma's quilts'' regular bed quilts often came along in the car. My kids are now in their 60s and often talk about their ''grandma quilts''....she made many over the years. Happy memories.

    We used to drive a great deal for Holidays with extended family, and camping. When my children were young, I made them each their own lap size travel quilts and pillowcases. Not only did it end any fights about what was who's, but it let those that were cold and tired cuddle up without disturbing those that were warm and already comfortable. They loved them! It's been years, but many of them have survived to be passed to their children! A couple years ago, I made scrappy denim quilts for my children, with fleece backing, with the intent of them being emergency quilts to keep in their cars, or to take on picnics in the summer. In our area, we've had a few experiences of being stuck in our cars, for extended periods, and the last thing you want to do is leave your car running, so that you run out of gas. Emergency blankets (the foil kind) and these "car quilts" can make all the difference in these situations. PS. Yes, I made it to the end of the video! Have a great day!

    A Serpa warning. I have noticed in the last few years that used Sherpa can turn kind of harsh I just assumed it was from high heat in the dryer. Low heat or line drying might be best. I'd hate to see that softness ruined by high heat.
    Thank you for being so real as you go about your quilting projects. Maybe there's hope for me 😊

    • @karenkay8928
      @karenkay8928 10 місяців тому +1

      If you are making this for children, I would not suggest wool. The wool will shrink and fleece will not. We wash their quilts & throws a lot. Just my thoughts.😊
