Step 1: Choose a horse pattern to use as a guide. You can print a template from the internet or design your own.

Step 2: Cut the horse body fabric into 2.5 cm x 20 cm strips. Then cut the strips into 5 cm long pieces.

Step 3: Sew the horse body pieces together, alternating colors, to create a “brick” pattern. Press open seams with an iron.

Step 4: Cut the background fabric into a rectangle big enough for the horse pattern you are using. Sew the horse pattern to the top of the rectangle, using a straight stitch.

Step 5: Cut the leftover fabric from the horse’s body into 5 cm x 5 cm pieces. Sew the pieces together to create a panel large enough to cover the bottom.

Step 6: Place the horse body fabric panel on top of the bottom, right sides together. Sew around the edges, leaving about a 6-inch opening on one side to turn the quilt.

Step 7: Turn the quilt right side out and press the edges with an iron. Fill the quilt with quilt or batting.

Step 8: Close the quilt opening with hand stitches.

Step 9: Admire your new horse quilt!

Remember that quilt art is often based on ancient techniques and patterns, so it’s important to reference and give credit to the patterns and projects you use as a guide or inspiration. Always make sure to come up with your own original ideas and designs rather than simply copying other people’s work.
