Under Construction Free Quilt Pattern by Lisa Swenson Ruble
Description:
Under Construction puts four appliqued trucks at the center of a 61-inch square quilt. Each truck sits on a hill against a Giotto Blue background, with separate pieces for its body, cab, windshield, bumpers and wheels. Three rounds of fabric framing surround each scene before the blocks join into two rows. Sunny Yellow and Blue Collar borders finish the top, with Workwear corner squares connecting the outer border to the framed truck blocks.

- Print the reversed applique templates at full size and check the one-inch reference squares. Trace the pieces onto fusible web, fuse them to the indicated fabrics, and cut out the shapes.
- Fuse the hills to the background squares, assemble the truck parts, and position the trucks on the hills. Secure the applique with a zigzag or other decorative stitch.
- Add the Fabric D, H and B or C framing strips to each truck scene. Join the four blocks into two rows, then add the inner border and the outer border with corner squares.
- Layer the backing, batting and quilt top, baste, and quilt as desired. Bind the quilt with the Fabric K strips.
