Sheepy Hollow

“SHEEPY HOLLOW-SUN VALLEY , IDAHO ”
38 ½ X 56 ½”
A little sun, a little rain, O soft wind blowing from the West,
And woods and fields are sweet again, And Warmth within the mountain’s breast.
A little love, a little trust, A soft impulse, a sudden dream,
And life as dry as desert dust, is fresher than a mountain stream.
Stopford A. Brooke
This quilt was created as a commission piece for a friend who is retiring to Idaho.
They have built a home in a valley where sheep are hearded every fall across
the river and bridge on their property.They named their piece of heaven, "Sheepy Hollow."
She wanted a little whimsy, so I tried my hand at creating
a few whimsical sheep. Of course a few of the sheep have to
travel a different path and not follow the rest of the group precicely!
