Artist Statement
This quilt was made for my youngest son as a wall hanging for his home. In this quilt you will find some of his favorite things. An Old Blue truck, dongs, deer, fish, UT Longhorn signs, Texas BBQ and more. The pieces in this quilt were all cut out by hand and applied to the quilt one piece at a time all down to the bugs on the trucks grill. This was my first Art quilt but will not be my last. I have been quilting for about 20 years, I started hand quilting and did that for about 16 years, I became a longarm machine quilter approx 6 yrs ago. Quilting is something that I enjoy learning different techniques then finding ways to turn them into a work of art.
