I really wanted to do green around each of the blocks but then I ran into a dilemma. Either having to use a dark backing to not look strange with green binding or add another white border after the green so I could use any colour binding or backing etc. That's why I settled on the white and I have a light backing fabric and I think I will bind it in the mauve from the one sheeps face. Next decision will be what colour thread. I think I will stitch in the ditch around each sheep and maybe match the thread colour to the body colour to quilt the bodies and face.
