Here i have done a Sunbonnet Sue. Can't say it was very hard but i was bullied into doing it and my Mum hanging over me all the way through lol.

I was going to opt out of doing this one but i wasn't allowed to

After doing the first one i thought (after a few glasses of wine lol) that i may as well do the boy too, So here is Bill

Well done Donna...I knew you could do it! (can I put the whip away now?)

Sue and Bill turned out great. I love Sue's dress and bonnet fabrics. She looks just like a sweet little girl for sure. Bill is all farm boy! Really like his gingham shirt.

Good bullying Karanmay! Now, where's your Sue?

they are precious!!! :P

three cheers for you. AND for Mom. :lol:

LOL! Yvonne, my Sue is still on the bed upstairs...shes wondrin where to go tonight!! I'm sure she'll have made up her mind by tomorrow... ;-)

donna anne, your mum's whip worked wonders! I may have to borrow her! Those are adorable! I love polka dots and gingham! Make a quilt with more of them!

The whip is here if you need it Chele!! I dont have to bring it out very often.....just if they look as if they're giving up on something!!....We dont DO giving up!! LOL!

Karen

Good job sue is sweet :D :D

very pretty.

Those Sue and Bill blocks are way cool :thumbup: and so fast too :shock:

Do you think it would be alright to makeup our own bad or good Sunbonnet Sue design? I am tempted to try that. :lol:

Oh, please do. I think that will make this months blocks a lot more fun and definitely more creative. Go for it! I can hardly wait to see what you come up with.

Nice job Donna and I got your pm. I am going to attempt this! I may try tomorrow. I think it would take more than a glass of wine to make me crazy enough to attempt Bill too. Yours look great though.

Thats great Toni. I know you will do a great job.

It turns out this Sue just scoffs at the leash laws.

They are adorable. :thumbup: :thumbup:

She is lovely and is welcome to hang out with mine. Love the colours

Donna xx

I love them.... haven't seen that exact "Bill" pattern.

Thank you, Donna Anne. Your polka dots and checks are a match made in Heaven! I have been doing some embroidery and I'm afraid my "Sweet Sue" is turning into a "Bad Sue".

:evil:

Ok this really stinks. It was a combined effort from me and hubby. This is as good as we could get it so didn't go any further so that we wouldn't ruin it. He did the stitching because I couldn't but we couldn't get it mastered. Anyway I attempted it.

P.S. The heart is for you Chele... :D

Toni you did good!!!!

Love that your husband is interested and is helping! Great block.

Toni,
Thank you for trying. Your Sue is cute and you'll think so too in a day or so. Step away from Sue and let her grow on you.

The first time I tried to do applique I asked my sister, Marcella, to teach me. After 2 minutes I told her I wasn't meant to applique and quit! I really didn't want to quit but I just couldn't get it. She was teaching me needle turn.

A few years later I discovered I could use wonder-under and basically color with fabric and that was the first time I actually enjoyed the applique process. And now I can even do needle turn. It's not my favorite but I can do it!

I'm so happy you've made Sue. I am very proud of you and I predict in a few months you'll try it again. Remember, never say never!

P.S. What a sweet husband you have. My husband will barely step into the sewing room! :lol:

P.P.S At least your block is done. I'm just starting mine!

Go Toni (and hubby)! I think it turned out adorable. And you went above and beyond the pattern with the heart! Very cute. I knew you could do it. :D

Since this is your first applique, you may want to have a glass of wine first. :lol: Just kidding. :wink:

KarenMary and Donna Anne, you ladies did great and I love seeing your Sue and Bill all finished.

...OH! Teach me not to read the second page. :roll: Toni, congrats!!!! Actually, considering you are working on your first applique piece without a net you did great!!!!!!!!!!!!!

KarenMary and Donna Anne, you ladies did great and I love seeing your Sue and Bill all finished.

These are all brilliant! Can my Sues join the party?
Here's good Sue, looking very pretty.......

By the way Toni...you did good!! .....has'nt this been a fun block? :thumbup:

Karen

Toni, you did a great job well done. :)

Mum, love the dirty stop out Sue, and the good one too of course.

Donna xxx

Karenmay,
I love your Sweet Sue! So cute.

Who wouldn't love Sue that's off to the pub for a hot time in the old town! Very clever.

Somewhat bad Sue cleaning out the fabric shop! I wasn't sure what this would look like in my wild fabrics!

I knew you would come through with a "Dirty Sue" karenmay! :wink: Great job on both.

Marcella, you too! Where's the embroidered poop Sue left? :D

These are all too cute!

Karenmay, your Sue is dressed too nice to go to a pub! Is she trying to fool her parents? Tell them she's off to church or something?

Chele - I LOVE IT! What a great idea to clean out the fabric shop!

Good job! :thumbup: :thumbup:

Oh! Chele that is a really cute Sue. Kicking and screaming I may have to do one.

Your wild and crazy Sue in the fabric shop is terrific!

Is it really bad to clear out the fabric shop so more new fabric has room? I think she might be "Good Sue!"

Chele - that turned out amazing!
~Tiffany

Bad Sue! and Really Bad Sue!!!

Too cute Yvonne. Love your fabrics and stitching! Yeah, your creativity is pretty amazing too! :D
