    Well, sort of. I still need to clip threads and wash it before giving this quilt to my GD. Thanks to Tippy who suggested lariat loops for quilting. I didn't quite get them, but the idea sure helped. This was a real "learning" quilt for me. A new method to make the horse panels and the first time using quilting templates. Oh, and a chunk of old blanket is the filling, which I've never tried before.

    I like the idea of using an old blanket. Did it quilt okay?
