    Default "Don't Fence Me In"

    Made this 36"x36" wall hanging for my son's fiance. She recently redecorated her guest room in beige, brown, turquoise and peach....and she is a horse lover! Quilting is galloping horses. This pattern was a real bugger to do - all the cuts, except one, was with eighths. I am so used to 1/4 and 1/2, it was hard to wrap my brain around it.

    It turned out wonderfully! I agree about 1/8. I avoid those!
