Growing up on a farm I love driving big vehicles ever since and up till today I’ll help with every moving as long as I get to drive the moving truck. 🙃

This pattern has just one single piece for the lorry bed so you can add some appliqué or embroidery or use a cute fuzzy cut for it. You can use this block in various projects: a mini quilt, a draw string for small toys or a pillow. Or make several of them in different colors and turn them into a wall hanging or a cute baby quilt, maybe combined with other patterns of my series Vehicle Variety.

The block pattern comes in three sizes (8“, 9“ and10“) for both directions, with a coloring sheet and a bunch of design examples. It gives you three different options for the block design: monochromatic background, two backgrounds for sky and street and an additional alternate section for a street with central strips. The individual sections are clearly labeled and have a ¼“ seam allowance. There are no curves or y-seams. The pattern comes as PDF files in A4 and US Letter paper format.

This pattern requires some experience with foundation paper piecing (FPP) due to sections with very small pieces (including an option to skip those). It does not include detailed FPP instructions. You can find lots of free tutorials for the various FPP methods online. A single block can be made with just a few cotton scraps from your stash.
