Cow Stampede Quilts

 Quilts can be quite humorous.

I heard some 

deep hearty belly laughs

through out the aisles

while viewing the

Cow Stampede Exhibit

Looking at Cows From A New Perspective

during AQS/Phoenix Quilt Week

**

This special exhibit is a hilarious

and very creative interpretation

of anything "cow"

Using the whimsical cow block from Mary Lou Weisman's book

Out of The Box with Easy Blocks

Mary's students have been

original 

 clever 

and offer a great play on words.

I saw a similar exhibit at Quilt Festival in Houston

and AQS provided even more ideas.

This post is a quite picture heavy,

but I wanted to share with you every funny inch:

 The Three COWballeros

by Jane Tenorio-Coscarelli

 Who would not love

a three headed 

mustached cow?

 Especially one adorned with a bird

wrapped in a Serape?

I seriously have to come up with an idea

and make one of these some day!

The basic cow block can be found

in the book
