    Your sheep are absolutely adorable. I like the idea of the white sashing separating the blocks, it's going to be a great quilt.

    Just so adorable! I think they look great. I wouldn't worry about the white. No one except you will notice.

    Your sheep are so cute! I hope you'll post a photo when the quilt is finished.

    I have meandered the white background with white thread. I SITD the head and body with white thread and I am finishing quilting inside the bodies today. I will post a picture of the quilt when it is done on a new thread. I thought you might like to see how I decided to quilt the bodies. The markings are with regular white chalk that will brush off with a soft toothbrush. I will post another picture after it is quilted and the chalk brushed away later.[ATTACH=CONFIG]553533[/ATTACH]

    I love your boogie woogie sheep! They are so adorable! I also like how you used rick-rack for their legs! I've never seen rick-rack used in a way I liked before! Always reminded me of the clown costumes my mom made for us as kids. She made a lot of clown costumes! Too freaking adorable!!! LOVE, LOVE, LOVE your sheep.

    I FMQed the lines and brushed off the chalk. Not perfect but acceptable. Now I just need to finish quilting around my eyes and square up for binding.[ATTACH=CONFIG]553534[/ATTACH]

    Great layout of the cute sheep! The quilt will be loved, and they won't notice the color differences of the backgrounds. It's a gift from the heart~

    We are our own worst critic, they say. It is wonderful.
    As for the "mistake". Bah....it'll be fine.

    Deep breath....deep breath!
