Let me introduce you to Speedy
here is Speedy and I on one of our morning walks
A lot was going on last year and I was too late making it happen to participate but I wanted to really remember to do it this year with Speedy, thanks to my sweet friend Dana helping me out! This year was especially important for me to be a part of it, see, 4 months ago, I had a tumble off Speedy (which is not normal for him to freak out but something wasn't right with him) and from that point on, the road went downhill for him, he started getting sick, with a bunch of tests later Speedy was diagnosed with Lymphoma (cancer) :( Right now he is doing good, he is holding his weight, he still acts naughty at times, which is a good sign for him! ha! but its been so hot here in AZ to be able to work him and see what he is capable of, we got for walks and such though and he has been more loveable more than normal ;) which I like!
anyways, we brought Speedy out to the front yard and he was quite the gentleman and putting up with us taking pictures and laying quilts on him. So hard to choose a favorite, geez I took so many! but thinking I narrowed it down to this picture :)
here are some others...(don't worry, I wont share them ALL!)
patiently waiting for us to be done!
Here he is looking at me like "are we done yet?"
and no worries...Speedy was paid for his time and patience with lots of love and horse cookies :)
thanks for playing along and go check out the other quilters pictures with their amazing animals over at Lily Pad Quilting!
love of love from Leslie and Speedy

Speedy is a beautiful horse. Treacle has a real affinity with horses and I don't know why as we don't have one, but she loves them. If any ride past when we are on a walk she always stops to say hello! Love the quilt too. Forget seeing all the lovely animals that this is about the quilts too!!!! Hugs, Susie x
