So one of my bosses at work is a new Grandma, so the girls I work with put me to work making a quilt for the new grandbaby....thing is, its a girl and since her daddy is a firefighter, they wanted a girly firetruck/fire fighter themed quilt...took a little bit of thinking on my part, but after finding this great paper piecing pattern on Craftsy from "Quiet Play", I had an idea in my head and I was all set!!

A Pink & Purple Firetruck!

quilt as a wallhanging..perfect!!
