Many of you know that between Jessica and I, we have six boys, zero girls. Not that I'm complaining AT ALL, but I do have to say that girl quilts are usually more fun to make than boy quilts. Except every once in a while, when a darling quilt pattern like this comes along! I'm in love!
My little guy still does not have a quilt from me yet. Yet. I will get to it before he's one! And I love that this quilt, Beep! Beep! by Vanessa of Lella Boutique, might actually make it possible! It's a pretty simple design with super simple quilting (straight lines are my favorite).
Vanessa says that this is a quilt anyone of any sewing skill level can make. It utilizes simple applique technique; most of the work is tracing and cutting out the car and arrow shapes! The comprehensive pattern is available in her shop in PDF or paper format.
And because Vanessa is so sweet, she is giving away 5 copies of Beep! Beep! to our readers! To enter to win a paper OR digital copy of this quilt pattern, just leave us a comment and tell us what you would do with this pattern if you won. Would you make it for your own little guy, or a nephew, a friend's baby? Would you use that boy fabric stash you've been holding on to for years, waiting for the perfect quilt? Let us know by Thursday, July 19 2012 at 11:59pm PT--we'll post the winners on the 20th. Can't wait? Order the the pattern from Vanessa's shop now!

I would make this quilt for my nephew he is only 8 months at the moment but it would make a great big bed quilt for him!!
Awesome! I'm a mom to two boys and love this quilt. I'd make it for my younger son...and if my sister's baby is a boy, I'll make one for him, too.
So adorable! I'd love to win this pattern so that I can make my future son his first baby quilt :)
I love this pattern, and I don't even have any baby boys that I'm super close to! However, my sister has 2 step sons (not babies) who would probably love this quilt, so I'd make 2 of them for the boys to use at my sister's house!
I would make one of these blankets for my son. He would love it!
I would love to use this pattern to make a quilt for my son's first birthday.
I just love this quilt! We have a houseful of boys and it would be just the thing for those chilly midwestern nights. Thanks for posting!
Hi! That is such a cute quilt! I have never made a quilt before, but I would love to make this for my 3 boys! We have zero girls, too! I have tons of little boy fabric that would look perfect!
Thanks for the chance at the giveaway!

What an adorable quilt, I would totally make this for my son and my nephew. The are both toddlers.
I would love this quilt. I can see a whole boys room with this. The quilt, pillows, quilted wall art. My boy is a year and a half now, but maybe for when he turns two and gets a big boy bed we can do car decor.
What a cute quilt! It is very hard to find a quilt pattern for a young man that loves cars but here is a great one! Just perfect for any young man! My friend has a grandson that would love this. If I won I would share the pattern with her!

I for sure would make more than one! One for a grand nephew, a newphew and friends boy too! thanks!!
I love this quilt! I also love that its a great beginners quilt. I would love to make my grandson this quilt, and I have never made a quilt before, I always felt so intimidated, but I love this one so much I would certainly give this one a go! Thanks for sharing and crossing my fingers for a win :)

Oh my goodness, that quilt is much to cute not to keep for my own family! I have two little boys and it's so hard to find cute boy projects!
The fabric is perfect for my son's nap time quilt at preschool.
Such and awesome quilt. I have 3 boys of my own, and a 4th one on the way. This would be a great pattern to have and use for all of them.
I would definitely make this for my own little man. It would also be his first quilt from me!!
This is so cute! My sister found out that she is having a boy a few days ago. I would love to make this for her!
I love this! I only have girls but they are both very into cars and signs and I would totally make this quilt in girl prints for them. And then maybe a few for my nephews, too!

I would love to make this for my daughter....she loves cars and trucks and transportation.
Well, I have 5 boys, and my very first nephew. I would probably have to draw a name out of a hat to see who got the really cool quilt! Or, I could just make the quilt 6 different times! This is the most amazing quilt I have seen for boys!
I would love to make this for my daughter who loves trucks, trains and buses....anything transportation related.
I would make this for a friend expecting her first baby soon!
This is adorable! I'd totally make this for my son, he's very into everything having to do with transportation. He only uses my quilts so his sister can't (little twerp), this one he'd actually LOVE!
Thanks for the opportunity!
Ah, how cute!! I would love to make a quilt for my toddler boys - they love everything transportation! Thanks for the super cute giveaway! :)
So cute! I would make it for my youngest nephew, Miles, who will be 3 in October. (My 2 older nephews are 24 and 20 years old!)
I'm having a boy in September, and we're decorating his room in cars and transportation stuff:) It would be so fun to make this for him!
Cute! I would make for a friend's little one.
Oh I love this! My son's room is getting redecorated this fall to a retro route 66 theme and this would be perfect for his bed! Thanks for the great give a way!

I'd make it for my friend's baby boy on the way.
I would love this pattern and I would make it for one of my three little grandsons - maybe I would have to make three quilts!
How cute is this. I would love to make this for my nephews.
With four boys, this quilt would be a welcome addition to their room. I love the modern look of it, not to babyish, not too fussy.

Wow.. super cute!! I love that you could make this for a baby and they can grow into it for a long time. I would make it for my son, he's 1 1/2 right now.
I would forward the pattern to my sister. She is starting quilting and her nephew (my son) would love this quilt! It would be a win, win, win situation!
would love to make this for my son!!
Oh my, I'd love this for my son. He just graduated to a 'big boy' bed and I've been searching for the perfect quilt idea to satisfy his love of trucks.
I would make it for my son... love it:-)
I too am blessed with boys and my two two-year-olds are all about cars trucks and automobiles. They would love it!
After getting a sewing machine after many years without one, I'd love to make one for my 16-month-old as my first big project and if it turned out well I'd make one for his best friend too!
I love this quilt. We recently finished my son's room with a car theme and this would be perfect for an extra blanket for him!!

I would love to try my hand making this for my little guy!
I would love to try making this for my little guy!
I would make it for my best friend's youngest, who turns one at the end of the month. We've been friends since 1985 (primary school :)
I want to make this quilt for my son.
I'd make matching quilts for my two sons!!
We're in the process of moving our transportation-loving guys (2 and 4) in together. The room needs to transform from baby to big boy and this quilt would certainly tie everything together. Of course, I'd be making two!
I would totally make a quilt! I am definitely a beginner with sewing and have always wanted to make a quilt, but have been quite intimidated. :)
The fabric is perfect for my son's nap time quilt at preschool.
I would make this for my little man. It would look great in his room, and he loves anything that has wheels!
If I won a copy I would make a bunch of this quilt and send them to Quilts for Kids. A wonderful organization that gives handmade quilt to children in the hospital.
This is an awesome pattern. I'm expecting and have been dreaming of making a quilt for my baby. I would love to make this first.
Well, I have four boys and this would be a perfect quilt to make four of and unify their room. They really need an update!
I absolutely love that you said, simple and easy to make, straight lines, any sewing level. I have been looking for that special pattern to learn by. Ive been wanting to learn how to quilt for a long time. And I'm fairly new to sewing as well. I would love to learn with this pattern!
Baby #3 - a BOY - is joining our family next month. This would be such a sweet gift for him.
I would make this for my 13 month old!
I have two sons. They each have bunk beds. So that's 4 beds awaiting boy quilts. And let's face it, I have enough 'boy stash' fabric to cover them many times over!! Gorgeous pattern.
Adorable! I would make one for my son and any of my friends who have boys :)
I would make a quilt for my son. And I would love to use some of the designs for a pillow for his bed too.
Then I would probably have to make one for my little girl who loves trucks almost as much as her brother!
Beautiful! I was waiting for an awesome pattern to try quilting for the first time and here it is! My little boy will be leaving his cradle and "graduating" to a bed soon, when the brother/sister arrives. This would help a lot with motivation! Thanks for the giveaway!
I would make a quilt for my son for his first birthday and another for my nephew's first birthday. I am she they would love them.
So cute and so boy! I would totally make this for my 4yr old and he'd love it.
I have a nephew n the way, and since I've made his 3 brothers quilts, I suppose I will be making another little boy quilt. ;-) this would be perfect!
Amazing! It's so hard to find baby boy stuff that's not too cutsie. I would make this for my own son - haven't gotten to a baby quilt for him yet and he's almost one! And maybe for his two boy cousins who are within 2 months of him, wouldn't that be cute if all three of them had similar baby quilts?!
I'm so not a quilter, but this pattern makes me want to try! My son would love it!
I think this would be an awesome pattern to make a quilt for my boys. This is such a cute quilt! Thanks for a chance to win! :)
Oh wow! How cute! I would definitely make one for my little guy.
Darling! I would make it for my little man.

my 3 year old still has his crib bedding and i need to get him something fresh, even better to make my own with this super modern and not too themed quilt. LOVE it!
I'm currently working on my very first quilt and the pattern is ZigZag Frenzy from Lella Boutique! I saw this pattern already in her shop and LOVE it. I would make it for my friend who is pregnant with her 7th baby....baby 7 needs an awesome quilt of his own and not a hand-me-down from baby 1, 2, 3, 4, 5 or 6!!! I could make a small wall hanging for the nursery as well. =)
