    My 5 year old neice would love this. She has a huge collection of your creations now as she tells me when she sees the patterns how much she really really really loves this one or that one….. How can I resist?

    I’d be tempted to make one for myself! So I could ride around with my younger girls and my great niece.

    My daughter, who is a horse lover, would adore one. I’d make it russet and cream: the colors of her favorite horse at the barn, Guiness.

    I’d make one for my nephew – he lives on a farm and I could totally see him playing with this.
