Hereford Quilt

Yay!  It's done and was sent on it's way back to Idaho yesterday.
76 x 87

I didn't use a pattern, I just wanted to showcase the Hereford fabric.  When my client asked me to make this quilt, she said her grandson loved Herefords....so I ran with that idea....

I purposely put this 8 inch strip in just so I could use this Wild Horse border pattern by Debra Geissler.

I love the rope border, but I LOVE the barbed wire. Every cattleman needs to fence in his herd!
Barb wire will keep out those longhorns that are roaming around on the far corners. 
Bumpy Minky on the back will make this quilt warm and cuddly.



Yee Haw!  This was SO fun to make!

  6. That is one beautiful quilt. I was raised on a Registered Hereford Cattle Ranch just outside of Palm Springs, CA. This is the first quilt I've ever seen to honor the 'Herefords"! Thanks so much for sharing!
