looking for western cowboy charts

Does anyone know where I can find freebies for cowboy items like hat, boots, cattle, campfire or anything related to western cowboys? Most of my magazines are English or British type of charts. My 5 years old grandson is into cowboy theme. I told my son that it would be easier if he likes animals, pirates, etc..since it is very difficult to find cowboy motifs for a 5 years old. I think he wants me to stitch up motifs onto a hand towel or something practical for his birthday which is in mid-May. I have all kinds of WOCS, The Cross Stitcher, Crazy for Cross-Stitching, Cross Stitching Gold, etc... even one of Margaret Sherry's chart of a horse is wearing English saddle...so that won't work...LOL

Any help would be appreciated. Thanks!

hi,

I've just got a book out from my local library called Travel the World in Cross Stitch (by Lesley Teare) and there's a whole page of cowboy related small-ish motifs. The publishers are called David & Charles and there is a Canadian phone number - 800-840-5220 - for obtaining publishing details. Hope it might mean it was available in one of your libraries as well...
