    That is wonderful. I think all your fabric choices were perfect. Would you like to make me one?

    OMG that is just too, too cute. I love it! The colors you chose are perfect. I think the sheep stand out just fine against the background. I would definitely make this quilt.

    Can you elaborate what applique method you used? Is it fusible or needle turn? I can do fusible but I am really awful at needle turn and I am equally bad with freezer paper method where you press under the seam allowance. I just have so much trouble getting nice clean edges. Once they are turned under for me I have no problem hand appliqueing them on. Fusible I can do very easily and do a satin stitch or blanket stitch around the raw edge. I also love the swag border treatment so let me know how you did that too, if you did it different then the sheep.

    What a lovely band of sheep. The border is exceptional with the banner running around it. This one is just really special, indeed. And yes .. I like sheep too.

    Love it. That little frame around the sheep gives it a 3-D look.
