I met Susie Holmes, our local Project Linus lead, and she assured me that there is a need for larger quilts for older boys. A light came on in my head when I remembered that stack of blue jeans with unfixable holes that rendered them unwearable. It’s fun to incorporate the jeans pockets into the quilt to make a quilt with built-in cubbyholes. At various Project Linus meetings I acquired the green tractor backing and some of the plaid fabric.

I had a leftover world map panel and lots of travel destination prints, so I put them together to make another larger quilt.
