No. No need to rub your eyes.
Yes, this is another quilt for the
I had to show you my Tumbleweed Quilt, my favorite quilt so far this year.
The quilt for ME!
I have to admit. This is my absolute favorite quilt right now. It is not at all my normal taste of fabric, but it was FREE! I won it from another quilter on her blog!
I love the Houston Rodeo and really wanted to not lose the novelty of the prints so that I could have it out during the time it is in town. However, I also wanted to have a bit of modern flair, so I tried something new with the tumbler pattern.

I did not have enough of the free fabric for a backing so I chose this brown fabric.
The flowers reminded me of Texas bluebonnets.
I am pretending the roses are some sort of Texas rose too!
Don't burst my bubble, okay?
I had enough of the scraps to do a binding, but I really liked this print when I saw it at the LQS.
It is Moda Grace Bias Stripe by 3 Sisters

I had intended to just put the label in a random corner, but I just didn't like the way it was glaringly popping out on the brown fabric.
I decided to piece some scraps at an angle and then needle-turned it to the center of the strip where I had a large expanse anyway.
Worked out brilliantly.

Quilt Stats:
Measures: 54" x 63"
Pattern: Tumblers (end to end horizontally)
Fabric: Various floral and cowboy motif fabrics from
Moda and other high quality quilting fabric lines (fabrics were all scraps)
Quilt Pattern: Loops with Rodeo motifs by myself on my HQ Avante 18"
-------------------
I have to laugh because as I was editing the pictures I noticed a stray thread from my EPP project on the left of the backing strip a few photos above!
Proof that I have already snuggled under this with Button!
Who has somehow managed to steal MY rodeo quilt and renamed it from my awesome name of Tumbleweed quilt to
Little Horsey's quilt.
Nothing is sacred in this house.
