Hah!! These are hysterical. I love it! Very creative, well-done, and funny as heck.
Not something that everyone will love (obviously!) but as someone who has plenty of experience with death of loved ones, I firmly believe that the best way to handle sorrow and pain is with laughter and art. When I hurt the worst, that's when I laugh the loudest, and these Sunbonnet Sue murders tickle that part of me, in a harmless and friendly sort of way.
Of course, I'm a big Neil Gaiman and Terry Pratchett fan too, so maybe we're just similarly warped? LOL

Me! give it to me! I love it! reminds me there are times to laugh! I have a SBS my mother-in-law made for her 1st child,84 years ago..It is so worn out you can hardly tell what it was!! She was and is still loved! Someone may be encouraged to make some beautiful out of bad feelings...Sue can take it!! she will not die!

This is a quilt that will eventually hang in my house. Even my Mom thinks it's funny. Lighten up folks!
Thanks Chasing Hawk.

I have never been a fan of SBS and normally find her totally booooooooring. Great way to add a bit of interest and intrigue and with your inventive mind Mad, I'm sure this could be a long term serial killing.
I'm glad I got the opportunity to see closeup pics so I could appreciate your inventiveness and embellishments.

Love it Martina, way more creative than following the beaten path.
I love when Kyle (?) dies in every episode of SouthPark to be back in the next one .
Sorrow for a drawing as if it were a child .... (chuckle)
