I've always heard his name as "Bluejean Bill".

M.I.Late 07-19-2010 09:14 AM

The men in her life, go by many names - Overall Bill, Overall Andy, Sunbonnet Sam, Suspender Sam, Fisherman Jim, and many others - I suppose based on their outfits . Sue must have a lot of boyfriends!

Sounds like Sue is a polygamist!

reginalovesfabric 07-20-2010 05:50 AM

all of you are right, he's been called Bill, Sam and Fred

Lorraine babuick 07-20-2010 08:58 AM

All three pretain to Sues boyfriend. I think she likes her men.
Ha, ha.
Depends on what pattern you use. Of course fisheman Fred is carrying a fishing pole.
I don't like the one where the fellow is standing with his back to you. Looks like a farmer taking a pee out in the field as far as I am concerned. I like the ones where he is walking by her side.

SandyMac 07-20-2010 09:57 AM

Sun Bonnet Sue is begin to sound a little bit like a lose women.Or maybe she is just playing the field till the Mr. right comes along. :shock: :?:

Too funny. We always called Him Overall Sam. Cute pattern.

Maurene 07-20-2010 04:38 PM

Fishin' Freddy - but I think she's still playing the field, we keep seeing her with all of them on different occasions!

Maurene 07-20-2010 04:49 PM

I made a Sue for granddaughter Alexandra from green and pink calico from a maternity dress i made for her mother, (dil) and a smocked tunic for her when she was 4. I put a pink butterfly over Sue's shoulder.

My older grandson Gabriel got a Fishin' Freddy in darker blue with a little perch on the line - he loved to fish. Younger grandson Jonathan got the same in lighter blue, with a worm popping out of the ground - he was a bit premature so the theme was the early bird caught the worm.

All 3 are still UFOs but I'm getting there!

seasaw2mch 07-20-2010 04:50 PM

She also hangs with Fisherman Fred!!

hapytlk 07-20-2010 05:07 PM

Overall Bill

Gerbie 07-20-2010 05:35 PM

Perhaps it is just one guy and he has shortened or changed his name to suit the work he is doing at the time, I have heard and seen patterns of all three. Let's give her a break lol, since she must really get around it seems and pretend he is really just William Frederick Samuel with Andrew as his last name lol.

Lori L 07-20-2010 05:39 PM

And she looks so innocent too? :) Who'd of thunk it?

julia58 07-20-2010 05:51 PM

I caught her smokin n the boy's room with camel Joe. They thought no one could see there face's with the hat's pulled down.

seasaw2mch 07-20-2010 06:15 PM

OK I have to butt in here. My mom named me Sue after this not so innocent looking girl so I have to defend her character.
She must be like me, and I have 13 brothers so we all get together at different times for fishing, hunting, building, play ball and tons of other stuff. I also have 4 sisters which I do not hang with because they are to girly or should I say prissy for me. LOL Besides, when we were kids and we had the battle among the sexes, who side would you pick to be on? I always stood up for the boys. LOL
