I have one waiting to be quilted--made of vintage feed sacks. Her shoes and hands are free floating, and she is blind stitched to background by machine with clear thread. She's been languishing in a drawer for maybe 3 yrs--I'll get around to her one day! Oh, and a lap quilt I just found in my pictures that was done from antique blocks found in an auction box...lots of hand embroidery on the old blocks.

Love SBS, the 1st picture is my all time favorite SBS and I am saving it for my 1st great granddaughter! The Blk/White was made for a granddaughter.
Sorry, for some reason I can't get the pictures to load.

Count me in on the "love SBS" train. She was one of my first quilts.
Seeing these has given me ideas. I want to do a Sue Of The Month quilt in the dresden plate pattern, and make each of her dresses in some kind of fabric that corresponds with the month. Then have each block bordered with half squares in the same fabric as her dress. It will take some searching to find just the right fabric, but what fun I'll have.
I love the ice skating Sue. Perfect for January.
Too many projects, too little time.
