Cattle Drive Free Quilt Pattern by Heidi Pridemore
Cattle Drive is a 64-by-84-inch quilt designed by Heidi Pridemore with Kenneth Wyatt's Cattle Drive collection. A long cowboy-print rectangle forms the center of a quilt built from long strips. Pieced sections combine cattle and cowboy prints with smaller patches, while narrow cowhide-print strips separate the different sections. Additional printed strips sit toward the outer edges. The cutting directions distinguish the large focal pieces from the smaller units, and the final layout gives the order for joining the strips.
