ArtQuilter Transportation - Back in the Day - Although I have many quilts in-process, this is the first piece I have completely finished and quilted thanks to the endless inspiration of my friend and designer of this quilt; Cindy Ebbe. Yes like all great quilters, I have works (plural) in process… more commonly known as “UFO’s” (unfinished objects). The inspiration to create this quilt came from my energetic grand-boys and the beautiful and timeless illustrations of the child-like modes of transportation fabrics by Michael Miller. For me, it’s reminiscent of a much simpler and carefree era in America.
