    Default The FWS Pony Club Quilt-Along wk 45 Western Star & Village School House Photo Page

    Guess What???? I have a block for this week done...granted it's the easier one...still...It's done...I'm really going to try to get a few of the previous week's finished this week...I have several in different stages of completion...

    I had to take the center square from another block I started and the cowpoke isn't centered too well but at least he's in one piece... I also didn't pp this block...I can't believe the pping in the book for this block!

    Here is my Western Star....

    Hooray!! Love your Western Star with the cowpoke riding onto the scene. [ATTACH=CONFIG]376404[/ATTACH]Western Star is the coyote, singing his song all through the years in the West-of-the-Mississippi countryside...and the wild mustangs that roamed the West...now only in limited areas.

    And Virginia Star...again?? O r is it time for village school house again???

    Ok, its the last two blocks!! [ATTACH=CONFIG]376406[/ATTACH]Young Man's Fancy is the last block in the book, also called Broken Canoe or Iowa Star...pattern downloaded from another site....paper pieced to celebrate the last one!! A bit of several pieces of fabric: horseshoes for good luck, and a red star (Canadian blue ribbon color) and a bucking buck ride finished, finally!! We made it to the finish line, watching others crossing that line...and cheering them onward. What next, PC riders??

    Again how different these two blocks look with fabric choices-both of them so very nice BTW!

    Honchey--I forgot to comment on your block earlier...great job getting one done! Perfect fabrics.

    Jan--I like your fabrics and quilting too...the circles on WS change the look. What is the name of your sub. block?
