Instructions

Two colors of good cotton fabric in choice of colors to match your home decor. Don't use cheap fabric...it won't hold up when stuffing it. It has to be a tight weave. I used Kaffe Fasset fabrics from gloriouscolor.com. They are around $9.50 a yard. Do not use cheap loose weaves. Use a floral stick for stuffing and reversing the horse.

What was your inspiration?

As usual I was looking over Tone Finannger's books on Home Decor and saw these horses. I just had to have one or two or five.

What are you most proud of?

That Tone shares her talent with us. I am proud of her.
