Little Bo Peep Sew Along-Corner Sheep

I know some of you have been having a very warm January so far.  This week we have had snow and it is in our forecast for the foreseable future.  It may have been slow in coming but it looks like it might finally be here.

There is something delightful about sitting down with  handwork by the fire and having a warm cuppa  coffee too.   So I have enjoyed working on my little sheep this week.  I am again using my Apliquick tools to prepare them.

You can either trace the pattern onto the fabric squares or just pin them in place using a light source for the layout. You will first stitch all of the white parts onto the block and then the black heads get added last.  Just like with the smaller ones we did on the main part of the quilt I found I preferred a dab of glue to hold the ears down rather than a pin.

Once they are all appliqued it is time to trim them to size.

Since I gave a quarter inch extra in the pattern pieces for the sheep bodies
I am just lining up my ruler at the corner of the sheep to trim these to size
​ and square them up.

How nice they look all trimmed and ready for next week.

Now for the Giveaways.  Yes, I actually have two this week.
