There is nothing like a couple of sheep that have the spirit of Americana to give that "primitive" touch to your home. These two would look wonderful on a sideboard or table or old country worn cupboard.
These two are made from muslin that has been needle felted with Old Vermont wool. Their faces, ears and tail are painted and distressed to looked aged. The white sheep (Uncle Sam) has a small white beard under his chin and a tall stovepipe hat on his head.
The black sheep is the counter part to Uncle Sam, Miss Liberty. Miss Liberty has a fabric crown in blue with white stars and both sheep have blankets with star appliqués and rusty bells. Their legs are vintage forged square nails. The sheep measure 13" long and 6" tall.
