Double Decker Bus

Nanette Merrill 27 comments

I'm making very slow progress on my London 2013 quilt pattern. I'm enjoying making this fun quilt again but time is a factor this year.

This is my double decker bus 2.0. I decided to try making it more traditional bus like in the front. But I think it ends up looking way to school bussy to me.

This is the bus block from London 2012. I'm unsure which bus I like more and what bus I will put in the finished pattern. I'm not done tweaking this block yet. I think I like this one more. What do you think?

Jill said...: is there a pattern for this quilt? I'm a newcomer to your blog so you may have answered this question already. I love all things British and would like to see the previous quilt.
Thanks!; October 7, 2013 at 9:06 AM

Barbb said...: I like the flat front bus.....I too think the top one looks more like a school bus. Could you add the people to the old bus?
Love the London quilt!; October 7, 2013 at 10:05 AM

Thimbleanna said...: i have yhat people fabric - too cute Nanette! I'm going to have to go with the 2nd bus though -- it looks more like the real thing!; October 7, 2013 at 7:52 PM
Lynn said...: Although I like both, I think the second one is more British Double Decker bus. I love the passengers in the first and those wheels, cute!; October 7, 2013 at 8:18 PM
Nedra said...: They really are both wonderful, although I think I like the 2012 one the best. Something about those cute London Flag spokes just spells fabulous.; October 7, 2013 at 9:11 PM
lynda said...: Both are great! And I also would love to buy a pattern if you decide to sell them!; October 8, 2013 at 5:28 AM
Pat said...: I love the 2012 bus better than the new one. Of course, it's your pattern/your quilt, so whatever you do is fine, BUT...since you asked.....LOL; October 8, 2013 at 6:07 AM

Carole in Nebraska said...: Could you put on just a small bump- out in the front? Probably not traditional to either bus style but maybe it's what would do the trick...didn't look too bad when I put my finger over half the front of the first one. But then it started looking a tad like a milk or bread home delivery truck that I remember from when I was a little girl. Otherwise, I'd say go with #2.; October 8, 2013 at 9:13 AM

Anonymous said...: As usual I like them both! Love the people in the bus, nice touch - but what a lot of fussy cutting! If I HAD to choose I'd take the first version - it's more British looking...love the wheels!; October 9, 2013 at 8:03 AM
Calli Makes Do said...: So cute Nanette! I vote for number two... but add the people!; October 9, 2013 at 3:01 PM
