For the Horse Lover in Your Life…

Giddy yup! I have 6 new horse paper pieced patterns. Previously all of my horse patterns were close-up face only block patterns, similar to all the horses in HAY GIRL.

HAY GIRL PATTERN

But I’ve been busy creating some full body horse patterns…

For the Horse Lover in Your Life…

Everyone loves horses…

What could be cuter than kissing horses…

Use them for pillows and other projects…

Or use them all to make a quilt…

For all of you horse lover’s, these blocks are enough to make a quilt if repeated. Let me see what you can do with them! Please email finished photos to maryannhertel@gmail.com. I would love to share them on a future post…

All 6 blocks together make a sweet quilt!

This child’s quilt was created by Christina using my FREE HORSE pattern. Although, the pattern is free, Etsy will charge a 20 cent restocking fee. Why can’t anything be JUST FREE!

I designed this FREE pattern for you horse lovers because I love you!

Anita assembled this gorgeous version in blues and browns, one of my favorite color combos. I would love to see what you can do. I’m also always curious about what images are popular and in the mainstream. I get the best feedback from you, my customers.

Love ya!

Farmhouse Animals with Flowers

My newest table runner has 4 adorable paper pieced farm animals wearing flower wreaths.

My FARMHOUSE TABLE RUNNER pattern has all 4 animals included and the directions to make the extra long farmhouse ruffle. This table runner has no quilt batting. Instead I used fusible T-shirt interfacing to keep the table runner nice and thin and flexible.

All of the block patterns are also sold separately. BUNNY WITH FLOWERS.

HORSE WITH FLOWERS
CAT WITH FLOWERS
PIG WITH FLOWERS

These blocks also make lovely pillows…

Although the pillow directions are not included in the pattern, they are available in my book: SEW CUTE AND CLEVER FARM AND FOREST ANIMALS.

I’m always interested in hearing what paper pieced images you are looking for….please comment below with more ideas for future patterns.

Snoozing…not really!

While I have been relaxing at the cabin, sipping Bailey’s and coffee, and enjoying the serenity, my friends and customers have been hard at work paper piecing!

I am super impressed with Anita’s fabulous adaptation of my HAY GIRL horse quilt pattern! Wow. Blue and brown has always been my favorite color combination. Didn’t she do an awesome job?

Christine made this charming birthday pillow using just one of the horse blocks. I love how she choose neutral colors, which will match anyone’s decor. This pony is one of my all time favorite horse patterns. I even have it on my computer screen saver!

Besides the 12 ponies in the HAY GIRL pattern, here are some of my other iconic horse patterns…

ROCKING HORSE BLOCK

I designed this ROCKING HORSE BLOCK for a baby quilt.

PONY

This sweet PONY was designed for my first book, CUTE AND CLEVER TOTES. I’ve always loved her hairdo. She has inspired many of my other horse patterns.

If you have created anything with any of my horse patterns, I would love to see a photo! Send pictures to: maryannhertel@gmail.com

HAY GIRL

I am so excited to show you my sweet horse quilt. HAY GIRL was designed with the horse lover in mind.

Hay Girl Quilt

These 11 ponies are adorbs! I’m trying to choose my faves, but I keep changing my mind.

Palomino
Dusty
Nicker

These are my top 3 picks…how about you? I’m not sure what was more fun…designing these beauties or naming them! My friends helped with the names…

My daughter, Jesi, was an avid horse rider in her youth. I’m sure she will love this lap quilt for her couch.
