Leading Lasso features a center of twenty-five appliqued boot blocks surrounded by a border of fifty pieced stars. Wendy Sheppard designed the 75-by-90-inch quilt with the Yippie Yi Yo Ki Yay collection by Laura Heine. The intermediate project includes boot and spur templates, reversed boots for selected positions, and flying geese units for the stars. Narrow and wider fabric borders separate the boot center from the star border and finish the outside of the quilt.
