    I've decided to use this block to jump start my Sue quilt to be.:shock: Oh, dear. How many WIP will this make????? :shock: :shock: HELP! Someone needs to tell me to stop and complete a few so I can have room to start more! :shock: :shock: :shock:
    Hhhhheeeeeelllllllllpppppppppppp! I'm drowning in projects!
    PS
    Don't you just love 'bad Sue?' Oh, the possibilities!
    Yvonne, I made a set of New Year's Resolutions where my quilting is concerned. One of my resolutions was to finish 3 projects for every new one I start. I'm beginning to think that was a bit ambitious and I should pare it down to finishing 2 projects before starting 1. Still, I find that I am getting projects done, some of which are UFO's from the early 90s. Perhaps this will work for you. ;)

    Bad Sue??? I'm going to have to go take a look at those links!

    No Yvonne, I think your little "Sue" is darling. I love the fabric. I'm anxious to do this block, I love applique. Thanks for choosing this block for us to work on.

    I am so glad to hear that you want to make a Sue block. Quilters have such a 'love/hate' relationship with Sunbonnet Sue I was afraid she'd be boycotted! :lol: I have grown to really like the block so I thought perhaps I could convert a few 'haters' into 'lovers'!

    Tiffany, I am going to try to follow your excellent example and start finishing a few things around here. I finished my two mini quilts this week. Do they get to count as two projects finished??? :lol:

    Well Yvonne I have never done applique before, but am gonna give it a try.
    My Mother had made a Sunbonnet Sue twin size quilt for my youngest daughter when she was little. I have always loved that pattern.
    Thanks for choosing that block and giving me a time to think back of tucking my daughter (now 29) in under her granny's quilt.

    I have 3 roaster pans of Scrabble/Nuts and Bolts/Guck/Chex Mix in the oven as I write this so I'll bring it to the whine and cheese, veggies and dip party!

    Whoever has sunshine is the designated quilting bee host/hostess! I'm getting "mossy" with all of this rain!
