Description: This listing is for a complete wool fabric kit including the fibers to poke into the sheep appliques and for some of the backgrounds. The price listed also includes the pattern and the 3-needle tool ($14.95) needed for felting and 5 replacement needles ($9.25), and a piece of foam ($4.00) to protect your leg from being stabbed AND priority shipping within the US. If you don´t need some of these items in the previous sentence, message me and I´ll make a listing just for you. This is my favorite felted applique pattern. It measures 31" high x 37" wide. Your quilt could be a different shape because you make the arrangement. There are 13 different sheep drawings that you cut out of wool fabric. These appliques get poked with the felting tool and wool fibers to make the sheep look more real than just regular applique. The fibers get hooked together magically because wool has barbs on each fiber and they mesh together. There are so many different textures and colors for natural sheep. We did see some sheep in Englad that were dyed different colors! The fibers I provide in the kit are curly, like sheep are, except I washed them so you don´t have to deal with the mud. I was looking to make my appliques more realistic, so some of the sheep in this pattern have 3-D ears, and tails. That adds to the charm of the quilt. The second photo shows a different arrangement (and one sheep design not in this pattern). It is quilted on my home sewing machine. The first photo is not quilted because there is not enough space to quilt it properly. as I was having too much fun embroidering. If you are looking for a unique project that will keep you occupied while on vacation, or commuting or just plain waiting for kids at practice, or while having treatments at the hospital, this project will add many hours of enjoyment to your life. When you are finished you'll have an heirloom quilt to pass down for generations. What makes this quilt unusual is that all the animals are felted 2-D appliques. In my first felted quilt, Crazy Sheep (51" x 51"), some of the sheep were pin striped (men's suiting) wool applique fabrics. I invented this felting technique. I went to town on the second felted quilt, the Sheep Wannabees (69" x 69"). Both of these patterns are listed on this website.
