Thanks so much for posting that. I'd forgotten what some of the blocks represented.
Brought big smiles to my face
Too funny..I laughed when I saw the quilt, but to see the names of each block it gives it a renewed humor. Thanks for posting that. It's great!!
ROFL, I think "Sunbonnet Soup" "Sunbonnet Sioux" and "Sunbonnet Sue-icide" are the punniest. But seeing the skylab, threemile island, lost in space, Jaws III and Suestown, up close with labels really helped to make this quilt more than just amusing, it really is like a time-capsule for that era.
