Introducing our Retro Car Quilt Blocks

Say hello to our Retro Cars Quilt Blocks! If you have been following us for a while, you may have seen snippets of some of these over the years. They have popped up in projects and on walls occasionally, so we decided it was time to publish them! 

These six patterns are exclusively PDF patterns and will be sold individually and as a set! Each of these fusible appliqué patterns includes a coloring sheet, full-size tracing patterns and full-size layout guides ready to be printed on letter-size paper. They do require a little bit of scotch tape. New to raw edge fusible appliqué? Check out our photo tutorial here. 

These super cute cars are so fun to play with. All the blocks are the same height and can easily be combined into a single project if you would like! We played with textures and added little bits of cork and vinyl as fenders and we added tulle to the windows. Feel free to have some fun with these - add a tree to the back of the truck, fussy cut some critters in the windows, add some luggage to the roof rack of the beetle, etc.
