Wow, it's been around that long and I've never seen it. Much cuter than Sunbonnet Sue! I agree I would add some black embroidery to outline a sleeve.... You can buy authentic 30's fabrics, you don't have to use reproductions unless you just want to. Ebay and Etsy are good places to look. Search for "vintage feedsack fabric".

You have a real treasure there. The embroidery work is awesome on it. Can't wait to see how you make it up.

I have no idea what the name is, but they would make a fantastic quilt with sashing between the blocks.

I agree with Cherylsea, it's Little Dutch Girl. I think the way the eyes look just depends on who did the embroidery. There are some at this link that have "scary eyes", too.

my first thought was "little dutch girl" even without going to resources, just flashed from my memory.

Thanks for the link!! Wow, one of those is really scary!! I agree, I think it just depends on who did the embroidery. In fact some of my squares seem to have a sweet expression even though the eyes are "scary"!!
