Tracy Hewitt Zimbabwe "Well written directions, went together so quickly too. I would class myself as an adventurous beginner with plush toys and was able to complete it without issue. The end product is absolutely beautiful and I can not wait to make more using different fabrics and options." Rach Lapham Australia "This was my first Rustic Horseshoe pattern and I feared I'd gotten in over my head but I succeeded and am thrilled with the results! Each step is clearly explained with multiple photos and check points are included throughout the pattern so you know you're on the right track. One part didn't make sense to me but I followed her process exactly and it came together perfectly on my first try. I love all the different options offered so I could create my very own unique Poised Pachyderm." Jenni Hope See more details about this pattern plus more images from pattern testers here!
