Lil' Cowboy and Lil' Cowgirl quilt patterns have arrived!

Lil' Cowboy quilt by Doohikey Designs available here

I'm so blessed and lucky to have great friends! 

Even better... great friends, who will sew for me last minute for quilt market! 

My Rodeo Rider fabric collection for Riley Blake Designs released shortly before the Spring International Quilt Market in Minneapolis. I was a little stressed about getting all the sewing done for my booth in time.  So I asked a few friends to help. 

Shari Butler of Doohikey Designs was one of those friends. She designed two playfully creative cowboy/girl quilts for me. Aren't they fabulous!?! 

(Thank you, Shari, I love your creations!)

I love how she combined traditional quilt elements like the friendship stars, and modified 9-patches, with more trendy elements like her silhouetted cowboy-themed appliqué blocks. Adorable, right?

Rodeo Rider Girl Fabric Collection by Samantha Walker for Riley Blake
This alone is quite amazing...but what you can't see, is the beautiful custom quilting by Kayli Taylor. If you look closely at the photo of the girl version of the quilt, pay attention to the white blocks behind the appliqué. You'll be able to see hints at some of the intricate details and patterns in this custom quilting job. I love it!
