Boy, someone doesn't like Sun Bonnet Sue on the embroidery quilt. It did make me laugh. I like SBS and someday will make one out of 30's fabric.

Yes, Sunbonnet Sue has been around for a long time! I will be 77 in July and my mother made a SS for me when I was born. She passed it down to me when I had my first daughter and I'm ashamed to say (not appreciating it then) that I cut it unto crib pads as it was "worn" some. I'm still disgusted eith me!

Oh, I was so excited. I thought Sun Bonnet Sue died. Oops.

oh wow. I totally mis-read that - I love Sunbonnet Sue (I'm actually hosting the swap now!) I can't answer for the accucut shapes. Sorry.

I must admit I also thought she had met her demise... and I hope to participate in the swap Jennifer22206 is hosting so I guess I really have no ill feelings towards her... funny how words can be seen so differently

Since I'm the new owner of an Accuquilt Go - I KNEW exactly what she was talking about.

I don't have an accuquilt so when I read the title, I thought Sunbonnet Sue died! I thought, Oh, no - but then again, she is really old! :)

Dirt nap...now that's funny! I will admit my first thought was "how could she possibly die?"

Count me in as one who was writing eulogies for Sunbonnet Sue. I watch the grain, but that is all. Only machine applique so far and all is right in my world. Poor Sue, Bill would be crushed.

I'm glad I am not the only one who drew the wrong conclusion when I read the title, but I thought she was dead - I guess I have been living in FLORIDA too long......
