This is the first of 2. Someone brought in donated blocks to be finished for charity. I got this first completed. Still needs washing. I had not quite enough muslin for the back so I added a strip of the border fabric. This finished off all fabrics used on this quilt. The next one has 16 Sue blocks (all the same as these)and is ready to mark and get quilted .

Your quilting is so neat. The little girl reminds me of a Dutch girl with wooden shoes. I have some old squares a friend found at a thrift shop that I need to finish. Right now I’m finishing Playing Scales quilt. Good job !

Nice finish! I have a super soft spot for Sunbonnet Sue. I love the way you quilted it, too.

Very nice! And all well behaved little girls 😃

I think some little girl will love the quilt. It is cute. I also like the backing. IMO, I think a pieced backing like that adds interest to a quilt.

Cheers,

This brings back so many memories. SBS was my aunt's favorite block to make. There were always stacks of them in her sewing room when I was growing up. It might have been her favorite because HER name is Sue. She has dementia now and isn't able to quilt anymore. Breaks my heart. I still take a few of my hand-pieced blocks to show her when I go visit.

SBS was the first quilt I ever made! I wonder where it is now.

Such a sweet Sunbonnet Sue, that brings backs lots of memories.

How nice of you to finish these SBS blocks so they can be used instead of sitting in a closet to be thrown away. It turned out lovely and will be cherished by some little girl.
