I think the Sun Bonnet figures are adorable and I think the colors are outstanding. I recently made a Sun Bonnet Sue quilt for my granddaughter. Thinking she had a twin bed I made the twin bed size. When spoke with her mother I was informed she had a double bed. This quilt had been finished and quilted, mind you. It also had a lot of purple in it, so I went to a fabric store, bought purple quilted fabric and added an 8 inch border all around. It is beautiful and the idea of using the quilting fabric to extend the size was not only a time saver, but also made the original portion of the quilt stand out.
