Hi Kelly , To answer your questions it has a real simple name paper pieced picket fence . The free pattern is at www.quilterscache.com . Marcia has lots of wonderful patterns ! I read the p p tips and followed them and fabric suggestions for the greens . I didn't have any problem . I haven't tried any of the star patterns yet .
I thought adding flowers would be nice or around animals . I have horse appliques I could use for that . I also have others cows , goats and smelly pigs . Annie
