I finished the farm dog today as well as the small goose. The dog has a bit of the same expression that Simba gets when he hears the word "walk". I would have liked to make it just like Simba but I don't have any nice blonde fabric on hand. Simba has legs that are a bit longer than this dog. His tongue and tail are not pieced in so they look quite realistic. I make a lined piece, turn it rightside out and sew it into a seam. I really like the tongue done that way.
It's funny that no matter how I plan these animals, they turn out the way they want. Each one has a different expression even if I use the same method as in the two geese.
I have a cat ready to start but I'd like to find some fabric that looks a bit like a gray tabby cat. We'll see.

Goosey Goosey Gander!
They are very lifelike geese, you have really captured them.
Love the dog, all eager to go!
Your puppy looks like he is about to cause some fun mischief. Maybe chase a sheep. Can't wait to see how all of the farm animals play together!
The dog has the look of taking the geese on a wild chase *s*
I really like the geese! This is going to be a very fun farmyard quilt!
Uh oh! That dog looks hungry! Hope he's not a hunting dog Joyce :)
Very clever Joyce the way you've worked that tongue and tail :o)
I love the goose top right. What next?
