March OMG: Finished!

I always love seeing how the quilting seems to "finish" a quilt top.
Since this fabric reminded of the the city with it's taxi and apartment building prints...

 ...I used a Car, Go, Go pantograph and really like how the cars added a new dimension the quilt.

Here's a close-up:

I found a wonderful "sketch" backing to compliment all the grey and blacks tones in this quilt and used a mustard colored thread for the quilting. I love it!

I found this pattern card on an end hook at Craft's Warehouse a few years ago for $2.99. It's called Summer Song by Villa Rosa Design. It used ten fat quarters and 20 5" squares. It was quick and easy
This one measures 46"x 58" and it's a keeper guys.
I'm happy to report this is my third Stash Buster for the year and I'm joining everyone else at this month's OMG goal party hosted by Elm Street Quilts. Click HERE to check out everyone's finishes.

    The quilt is spunky with its yellow and black. The cars are perfect and so cute.

    What a fun quilt design! You did a great job with this. I like how the quilting design gives more juvenile appeal to a top pieced with kind of a grownup color scheme, if that makes sense. Great job! And thanks for linking up with TGIFF!

    It looks super, Val! You're right, it's the same pattern as my Olympic color quilt. Such a great way to use charm squares and FQs. I love the car themed panto, and yellow thread was the perfect choice to quilt it. Isn't it such a wonderful neutral, even in bolder hues like mustard? :)
