Sunbonnet Sue blocks
 
3 Attachment(s)
I started a Sunbonnet Sue months of the year quilt. The designs are embroidered on my Brother embroidery machine. I am adding sashings to correspond with the month. Here are three that I made today. January, February, and March.

They are just gorgeous. What a great idea to use the months of the year as your theme.

I might just have to "steal" that idea and use it as an idea for my granddaughter. Perhaps a wall hanging with the months of the year. Hmmmmm now the old grey cells are ticking over.

Like them, they are colourful and seem to be just right. The stiches are so rich and lovely.

Awesome I love Sun Bonnet Sue.

Great job! My great grandmother made me a Sunbonnet Sue quilt and it disappeared some years ago. Of course, it wasn't embroidered like yours. This is lovely!

aww, so sweet

quilterpurpledog 03-26-2015 03:26 AM

Your blocks are really sweet. I like your idea of the seasonal fabrics used to sash the blocks. This promises to be a great quilt with lots of opportunity to talk about the seasonal fabrics. Cute idea.

Jingle 03-26-2015 07:56 AM

Beautiful, I love SS.

BrendaK 03-26-2015 07:59 AM

i am not overly fond of SBS but this is adorable. I guess I have to change my mind as I really like these blocks. Can't wait to see the other months. BrendaK

Beautiful. I too look forward to the rest of the year for the rest of the blocks. Thank you for sharing.

they definitely bring a smile to your face -- they are soooo cute!

Barbara Kantola 03-26-2015 10:31 AM

You have done a great job on the blocks! I don't get too excited about the embroidery machines, but your blocks are outstanding! I might have to think again about embroidery machines!

twinkie 03-27-2015 02:21 AM

Those are sew darling. Can't wait to see the finished quilt.

A friend of mind embroidered 2 each month, she kept one and sent one to me...we then at the end of the year made our own quilts...her's was a queen size , mine was a twin...we really enjoyed this that we do a block of some kind each month and make a quilt each year....we have been friends for over 45 years. oh we're on quilt #4 as i am fairly new to quilting, and enjoying every minute of it.

nena 03-27-2015 06:47 AM

What a nice idea. I may have to think about this to do with GD who is just getting into quilting. Hope you won't mind my borrowing your idea. By the way. love the SBS. One of my favorite blocks.
