What a coincidence. I was going through a box of fabrics/quilts from my husband's grandmother and found several blocks exactly like the ones you have done. Unfortunately I only have a few, but they are certainly a cherished pattern. You have done a marvelous job in finishing your Mom's work.

How sweet! What a treasure.

lovely work

Emma S 01-14-2012 02:48 PM

She is my favorite of the sunbonnet group, and not just because of the name. (See Avitar) Not only are they charming but because they were your mom's they are priceless.
I think she is also called the Parasol Lady too. There is a pattern in the Quilterscache.com

Beautiful work, so nice you are able to finish it, makes the quilt very very special.

A really cute quilt. The older patterns have such appeal. We have sunbonnet sue, a newer easier version of your quilt.

cherokeerose 01-15-2012 05:40 AM

Your quilt is beautiful. I love the old vintage patterns and the sunbonnets have always been one of my favorites. I remember a quilt my grandmother had that was Sunbonnet Sue's. It was a much used, well loved quilt that had been washed and repaired many times, but it was always my favorite quilt.

ann clare 01-15-2012 05:47 AM

WOW!!!!! Stunning.

sewnsewer2 01-15-2012 06:17 AM

Super job! I love the way you quilted it too!

#1piecemaker 01-15-2012 06:18 AM

Wow!! Your mom was quite a quilter! You've done well by finishing them up for her. great job.

Cris 01-15-2012 06:23 AM

Fabulous! :)

Geri B 01-15-2012 06:25 AM

now her I like....not really fond of Sunbonnet Sue, but I really like her "older sister".....wonder where that pattern might be....anyone here know where to begin the search??????

Ginny B 01-15-2012 06:26 AM

Oh, how beautiful!

Whigrose 01-15-2012 06:44 AM

Not one for vintage quilts as a rule, this one definitely had me saying, 'Awwwwwww, it's so sweet'. The top and the quilting are perfect together.

marytp 01-15-2012 06:51 AM

Love the vintage pattern!

cheaha39 01-15-2012 06:53 AM

That is beautiful, my daughter has one similar, my stepmom made it for her more than thirty years ago, its hand quilted and gorgeous. Thank you for sharing

sapdoggie 01-15-2012 09:25 AM

Gorgeous quilt !!! I have one my great- grandmother made for me when I was two. What year did your mom make the quilt? Mine has many similar fabrics in it. We were trying to decide how old my quilt is.

Jammin' Jane 01-15-2012 12:15 PM

WOW! What a wonderful keepsake!! Nice job! :)

KathyPhillips 01-15-2012 01:38 PM

Beautiful... I hope I can find the pic , I quilted one like that several years ago, for a older woman and it belonged to her mother. the fabrics were so old... I just love the older style quilts. you did a wonderful job on this quilt.

CarolinePaj 01-15-2012 03:14 PM

That is just so pretty..... my daughter is called Emma so I love your name for the quilt too!

Hugs

Beautiful!! Your quilting really compliments your Mom's piecing. Great job!! What a treasure!

I checked Quilters Cache for the pattern (Emma S indicated it was up there), but no luck. Sorry.
