Default Ride'em Cowboy!!

I had 2 fat quarters of these cowboy prints and was unsure of what to do with them. So I went with a no waste pattern that I could stretch a little with red sashing to make it go a little further. The FMQ is off center as I was trying something new and found that it was not as easy as I thought it was going to be. I used safety pins on this one because I’m trying to get away from using the basting spray so much as I really think it is not healthy to breath and sometimes clean-up is difficult.
The little bag is just big enough to hold the quilt and a few extras but I am really pleased with the FMQ on it. I like the horseshoes, stars and boots theme. I just drew random shapes with a chalk pencil and did loopy loops to connect them.
I am really enjoying making the coiled pieces. This bowl is huge! I have no idea what it could be used for but I like it. The other item is a table ‘protector’ to set hot casserole dishes on your table. I’ve been using pretty big rope (3/8 inch) and it makes into some very sturdy items. All of these items will go in my craft show in October.

The baby quilt is so cute. Also your rope work is excellent. I could use a couple of those.
