Much like today, horseshoes are a very common theme. It is truly amazing that there are so many different ways they are presented on these fabrics. I do like the jockey cap and nails/tacks and riding crops. Double horseshoes, for those who are not sure how the keep the luck from falling out.....

I suppose in a society which depending so much on the horse, it shouldn't be a surprise there were so many horse fabric prints! I love the ones with the buggy.
All these fabrics with horseshoes are lucky! And quilts or other things you'll do from them will bring their owners lots of luck!
