I’m totally bugged. Although we started the little sheep with plenty of time to go, it still came down to the last second, getting them finished for the girls’ teacher gifts at school. I finished them up last night, tied hanging strings on them and packaged them this morning before the girls left, and it is SO DARK here with the heavy clouds right now, I couldn’t get decent light for a good picture. So, you’ll have to settle for these ’til I finish more.
and their cute little backsides…
These are so stinking cute. I didn’t have enough time to really work out the shape and position of the ears and tail. I’ll be messing with that some more on the subsequent flock and welcome any opinions/suggestions. My favorite part of these little guys are the cloven hooves. They crack me up.
Hey mom, I keep meaning to ask you… did you make this up yourself? or was it a pattern back in the day?

Hey honey,
Do you remember the Mama sheep. I got a “baa-baa” box at a craft store (Michaels probably has them…call), made a big sheep and installed a baa box so when you turned her over and righted her again, she called her babies. Plus she had a bell…maybe the little ones did too.
