Prancing Pony inn sign.

The Prancing Pony inn sign has been tested and is available on Craftsy and Fandom in Stitches!  I think this is one of my top three favorite designs so far, right up there with the Dune and Game of Thrones quilts.

I have ordered my fabric out of the UK for this (I really wanted the same Makower Spraytime fabrics that I used in the computer mock-up) and I am excited to bring it to life myself after our move.  Eventually this will go on display with my hobbit meals list cross stitch in our dining room.  I am toying with the idea of using a straight plant hanger to hang it in the doorway like a sign.  This would be a great standalone wall hanging, or you can add it to a Lord of the Rings quilt for some flair.

There are a lot of sections (27!), but it is not actually that complicated to piece if you have some experience.  Because of the large number of sections, however, the block may measure a tiny bit short at the end depending on your piecing.  Be sure to remove your foundation paper from inside the seams as you sew to help with that.  If you need a square block, it is easy to add strips of the background fabric to the top, bottom, and sides to square it up.  While the embroidery is a large piece of the pattern, it is certainly not essential.  You could easily leave it off or use another method to add it, like paint or HTV.

As always, I am happy to reprint the pattern pieces in any size you need.  Contact me via the main page for requests.

I have had several testers work on this one for me (see the pictures below), and I have loved seeing them come to life.  If you make one, please share!
