I have always been a machine
appliqué aficionado,
then I learned how to needle
felt and I was off and running
in a different direction. The
Crazy Sheep was designed from
my Woolly Sheep pattern which
came out in 1998. I had bought
many different wool remnants
in 1999. About 6 years later,
I started to appliqué
sheep crazy quilt style on the
suiting weight wools. I wanted
to know what sheep looked like
in pin stripes. Then I put the
project away until 2007 when
I became interested in felting.
Whoa, the textures you can achieve!
Add some hand embroidery, and
you really have something exciting.
The pattern for the sheep appliqués
is sold separately from the
pattern for the Crazy Sheep
in case sheep are not your favorites.
We have lots of other animal
themes you could choose. The
Crazy Sheep pattern shows you
how to make all the details
of this crazy quilt, how to
felt raw edge stitched animal
appliqués and trees and
how to embroider flowers by
hand and make portraits for
the cornerstones. The Crazy
Sheep comes as a PDF file because
there are so many photographs.
