Powerfully Romantic

For anyone who ever loved the Black Stallion books or movies this is the chance to relive the experience every time you catch a glimpse of our nicely sized (17 ¾” X 22”) fabric art décor piece.

Princess YellowBelly and her friends used a variety of styles and quilting techniques to create this piece:

  1. Silhouette Landscape Quilting

The scene is constructed with fiery orange and yellow quilting material to recreate a sunset beach.

A narrow strand of black material makes a solid beach, setting up the baseline for the black highlights and powerful drama that this piece entails.

  1. Applique Quilting

Both the beach and the black stallion are separate pieces of black fabric that have been appliqued to the gorgeous sunset background of the quilt.

  1. Fractured Quilting

This black stallion quilt features an extra bit of amazing!  A reflection of the horse and sunset is perfectly captured in the water.

This is done using a technique called fractured quilted – where two or more images are cut apart and sewn back together to create the displacement optical illusion.

  1. Fabric Marking Pen Enhancements

The black stallion quilt is made realistic by the addition of fabric pen markings on the horse’s mane and tail.  These carefully replicated markings make the hair on the mane and tail appear to be truly flying free.

  1. Tailored Quilting

Running Wild is quilted in two different sections – and styles.

The top, or single image, is quilted in sun rays and by outlining the black stallion, popping him out of the rest of the quilt.  The bottom, or inverted fractured image, is quilted in uneven concentric circles to replicate rippling water and add to the magically realistic qualities of the black stallion quilt wall hanging.

Princess YellowBelly’s black stallion Running Wild panel:

  • Measures exactly 17 ¾” inches wide X 22 inches high
  • Predominant colors are solid black, vibrant orange, fire red, pale yellow, and rich gold
  • Running Wild shows a black horse running along a beach at sunset. His image is “reflected” in the water

Sunset material is from a collection called “Tuscan Poppies Sunset” and is a batik-quality quilter’s fabric.

The black fabric is solid Kona fabric (sometimes known as true Amish black).

Running Wild is quilted with warm and natural quilter’s cotton batting.

Care & Cleaning

Running Wild is an easy-care piece.

  • Recommended care and upkeep with a lint brush
  • Machine wash (cool, delicate cycle with a gentle detergent) if needed
  • Can be tumble-dried, although air-dry is recommended
  • May be cool-ironed (cotton settings) to remove packing wrinkles. Safe to iron with water or spray-starch

Display Options

We use regular household thumbtacks to secure our fabric art panels for display.  They hold the panel tight and fabric is self-healing, once the tacks are removed the holes will close up again.

If you would prefer to use a hanging or curtain rod to display Running Wild, we offer hanging sleeve options.

Hanging sleeves are only attached upon your order and your selection of your preferred choice –

  • Top Hanging Sleeve for normal hanging
  • Top & Bottom Hanging Sleeve if you would like to weight the panel as well

Hanging sleeves are made of the same material as the backing fabric, and are about four inches wide each (although this can be adjusted to custom requirements).  They are attached under the binding seam line, and are secured with hand stitching to ensure that the seam won’t show through on the front of the panel.

If you would like to discuss customized options, please contact us directly!

*Photographer’s Note: Due to the intense oranges and red of the background sunset fabric, Running Wild proved difficult to photograph accurately as the color confused the camera’s sensors. 

While every effort was made to clearly capture the colors of this fabric art wall hanging, some color clarity was lost in the photographic process.  The sunset-to-black ratio is much clearer and true-color than the photographs represent.

We can answer your questions more quickly if we know the general topic of your inquiry or comment - thanks for obliging 🙂
