QuiltingNinaSue,
So what happens when you have three real cowboys? Do they play Rock, Papa, Scissors to see who gets to sit in the middle? My daughter's horse loved wooden fences...he thought they were just delicious.

Oh Oh ... I've been doing Y-PP!
And have A Beauty almost done ... though decided to call it a day (or perhaps I should say night?)
Will be doing the photos tomorrow/Saturday and posting.

Good job, QuiltE. Nothing wrong with your eye sight or colors on your lovely blocks.

tdt: good to hear from you. The cowboy way would respect age and the youngest cowboy would sit on the right and open and shut all the gates. If the horse is eating the wood there is a problem...needs minerals & salt...and some schooling. Some horses will kick boards out of their stall and needs a refresher of training. Others will try to bit you as you saddle or bridle them; bad habit. Or fill their stomach with air, so when you step into the saddle, the cinch gives way and turns you under the horse.

I find the trick rider is exciting; they train their horses well so the rider can hang onto each side and back while the horse gallops around the ring.

Thank you QNSue ... I appreciate your encouragement. I had such a hard time deciding on the fabrics for A Beauty. Sometimes I putter around with the fabrics for a very long time before I start working on a block. And sometimes too, I walk away from it or ignore the block for awhile, when I just don't know what to do!

I too enjoy the trick riders ... and appreciate their skill!
Also, the synchronized riders ... particularly our RCMP Musical Ride!!!

Very, very pretty QE! I love all your fussy cuts and the bright colors you used. Good job!

Great blocks QuiltE! Good job on getting all caught up during spring break! :)

JeanieG 04-07-2012 04:35 PM

Oh lovely fabric QuiltE! (lol) Those both turned out super! You'll be caught up in no time.

Wow...QuiltE...you've outdone yourself! It's been worth the wait to get to the beauty.
