Quilts on the Bed Home

Quilt for Train Town.

One of my son's favorite places to visit is a place he calls train town.  It's really The Western Reserve Model Railroad Museum but Ben loves to call it train town.  We visit it often and have gotten to know a few of the other regulars who are there when we visit.   As with many small org. it is run on donations and sponsors.   I have long thought about trying to be a sponsor with my quilts but I just don't make much money doing it right now.  SO I thought it might be a great plan to create a quilt for them to raffle off and bring in some extra support money for the museum.  

I currently have several blocks ready to start and begin the quilt.  I will be posting updates on this page as I work on the quilt.

This quilt will only be trains.  I will not be using any other train items on it.

I currently have about 13 blocks completely colored and 2 which are partly colored.  Some of these blocks will be put in to the Train Town quilt and some will not.   I am coloring all that I have ready so that I can make another quilt when I am finished with this quilt.  When this quilt is finished it will have 24 engine blocks in it.
