Where did you get your pattern. What is the name of the pattern. I have a GD that loves everything horse. I would love to make one for her for a wall hanging.

I kind of like the idea of making this into a tote bag. My DGD is the probably recipient since she's the horse-girl in the family. My intent is to make her a full-size quilt with a horse theme, which is why I'm testing various ideas.

grandma nurse - the pattern came from Southwest Decoratives. It's an all-pieced quilt pattern called "Horse Happy". I highly recommend the company to buy from, they've provided excellent customer service to me. Here's a link to the pattern:
