I am in a few scripture study groups and I wanted to make something meaningful for all the ladies. The theme of Jesus as our shepherd comes up so much – we are his sheep! So I knew I wanted to make a sheep ornament (plus I love sheep!). I began to make THESE ornaments, only to realize I made the sheep to big! The sheep would not fit in the jar lids! It was midnight so there was no turning back! This is what they turned into! And I love them! Here’s how you can make them:
Supplies:
2 charm squares (5″)
5″ square Heat n Bond Fusible Fleece
Scraps of white and black fabric for the sheep
Heat n Bond Lite
Heat n Bond Ultra
Fiber Fill
Ribbon
Begin by selecting your charm squares – I love projects that use up what I have on hand!
Trace the sheep body on to Heat n Bond Lite. Trace the sheep ear, head, and feet onto Heat n Bond Ultra.
Heat set the pieces onto the wrong side of the fabrics. Let cool. Cut out each piece. Peel off backing paper.
Position the sheep pieces onto the center of one of the charm squares. Heat set into place.
Sew around the sheep body with a straight stitch. I used the ultra heat n bond for the feet, ear, and head – which require no sewing. Of course you could sew around each piece – I had to make a lot and now it was 1:00 am!
Heat set the sheep square to the fusible fleece. Then layer them together as pictured above.
Cut a template out of cardstock of a circle just under 5″ in diameter. You can see how it fits right inside of the charm square. Pin and cut the circle through all 3 layers.
Pin all the layers together and tuck a little hanger in the top.
Sew a scant 1/4″ seam around the circle, leaving a 2″ opening to stuff. Add a little fiber fill and then sew the opening closed. Sew around the ornament a second time – I like how it looks when the two seams are a little off – it also helps round out any areas that aren’t perfect!
Tie a little bow and sew into place (or in my case, 1:30 am, hot glue that thing and then go to beed!)
Now go and sew a pasture of sheep! And don’t forget that Jesus loves you 🙂
