oohhh I love it! Cute, cute,cute! I do ME also but haven't had the nerve to do a big quilt. What made you decide on Sue & Fred? How big are the blocks? Beautiful :thumbup:

These were the designs of the week - and I love them. Also had made a lap quilt earlier.

Yours is beautiful. My sister did a King size one of S-Sue and Sam, and countless others. I did one with Micky & Minny Mouse, Donald & Daisy Duck, and Goofy, and another with Tinkerbell. I havn't quilted Tink yet.

Was the embroidery done on blocks and then made into the top, or did you manage (somehow) to do each block after the top was sandwiched? Does this make sense?

The embroidery amazes me! You are definitely one talented quilter.

Great job! I, too know what you mean about time consuming with the embroidery. I did a Winnie the Pooh single for my friend and that took every spare moment for a month to get done.

I LOVE your quilt!! That's alot of time and work.

I did one on my embroidery machines.. had both of them going at the same time and had both break down on me a various times, but it took me about 2-3 months to make mine. It's an oversized queen/ almost a king.

Mine is rag blocks and each one has a design or scripture or something meaningful to my DH and I.

Wow, that is alot of work. I thought having an embroidery machine would be soo easy peasy, push a button and voila!! No, it is time consuming, but so worth it! Your quilt is georgous, and I love what others have posted too.
