The idea of this sheep design came to me during a train journey to Dublin on the inaugural Kilkenny design makers Academy Bootcamp on July 23rd.
I was chatting with two girls sitting beside me, and I noticed both of their bags were decorated with cute animal accessories. After showing them a few of our felt sheep designs, I asked how they thought we should dress our little sheep. They both said they would love to see the sheep dressed the same way they dressed themselves.
Then I noticed one of the girls wearing a dress with a pair of brown boots. That gave the idea of creating a little sheep wearing a dress and boots.
Now this little sheep became a popular design and my heartfelt thanks to the two lovely girls. Thank you for sharing your ideas with me on that day.
