I see various quilt projects with chickens from time to time, but does anyone else love sheep like I do?

If I were to do this again, I would chose a slightly darker fabric for the sheep so there is more contrast against the background.

When my granddaughter, mary was about 2 years old, I bought her a book about a little lamb that was lost from her woolly mother. Mary couldn't say "mother" and said "woolly mulla" It stuck. My whole family calls all sheep "woolly mullas" and yes we love them. I even have "woolly mulla ears" (Lamb's Ear) planted in my garden. A silly story, but I couldn't resist.

I love the sheep on the light background. It's a subtle surprise rather than a bold statement. It is darling just the way it is and I wouldn't change a thing
