    gorgeous - I've seen the same pattern and want to do it for my daughter who love horses - how hard/easy was it? did you use raw edge applique?

    I'm not sure what raw edge is. I did a mixer of top stitch and satin stitch. For the applique I use a fussiable web. The hardest part for me was picking out the colors, What I did was focused on one horse for the colors, it made it alot easier. And you do it slow and dont rush!!! Fusing it together was a pain, I did one horse at a time. But I enjoyed doing this.
