Sew a Pieced Pasture For Pretend Ponies!

       Our pony pasture is quick and simple to sew. Whether you are sewing it by hand or by machine it takes very little time and just a wee bit of creativity to patchwork a pasture for any child's barnyard toy!
       The fabrics I pulled from my scrap stash included one green solid, one green plaid, one green floral print ( including daisies of course), one green marbled pattern, one brown (muddy) batik, one white to straw batik and a distinct, vibrant blue batik fabric cut for ponds and streams. 

The quilted pasture mat measures 45 inches by 52 inches.
However, you can sew one  like it in any size you wish!

Left, the horses have been let out of their stalls to roam and eat however, wherever they
 please; which one of the ponies will eat the daisies first? Right, this Melissa and Doug
 horse stable is built to last for several generations of child's play. It's a Take-Along with
 handle and sturdy brass latch.


This stable toy has been produced for many years. It may be purchased new or from
 second-hand dealers. I paid only three dollars for this used one. The horses were
 collected for many years by my youngest daughter.


Left, there are windows on every side of this stable toy. Right, the ponies are drinking
from an applique stream bed!
