I was directed that I needed to figure out what size. Ok - the size for the "Sue Bonnet Sue" will be a double.
What is the next step?
For these quilts can I use scrap fabric?
I would like to hand quilt the "Sue Bonnet Sue" and Maybe machine quilt the "Log Cabin" quilt.
Are you meaning the "Sun Bonnet Sue" pattern? There is also a "Sweet William" boy too.
My mil used to make these. I have a flea market about 40 miles from me where they sell the kits pre-cut. I have never bought them for me but my mil loves the kits.

If you have a place close by where they make clothing sonations for a small fee then you can carry out a lot of material in a garbage bag. I am excited to see what you can do!
