wow you are brave I'm not sure I'm that brave. I have been quilting a short time took my first class at the local QS did block of the month so took me a year.
It would be a challenge but hey why not, tell me do you remember what size blocks you cut? My GS would be so thrilled so I will have to try. I will be having total knee replacement next week so will have a long recovery and lots of time to cut blocks I just hope I will be back to my machine real soon as I will go crazy not being able to sew.

I used 2 1/2" squares for the main ones and I think I used 4" for the 2 rows above and below the center part to make it more rectangular like it should be. The center block is a 12".
Good Luck! You'll be surprised at how easy it is.

Hi there! Thank you! I didn't have a pattern for this. I just worked it in rounds until I thought it looked good and then did something else. I purchased 2 different Denver Bronco fabrics at JoAnns in NE. On the first page, the next to the last picture, you can see the 2 fabrics that I bought. That is where I got the horse head. If you can't find the Bronce fabric locally, I'm sure you could find some online. Good luck.

What a GREAT Job. My nephew is graduating high school in June and loves the Bronco's. Like you I am just learning. My question is, how did you match the orange and blue? I mean the shade. Or did you just use an orange and blue that you liked. I am placing my order with Joann's Fabric.
Any advice is appreciated. How much fabric did you use?
