For someone who purports not to like Sunbonnet Sue I am again showing signs of inadvertent addiction. I once made two bags using free Sue and Sam patterns from The Quiltery. Later I joined their pattern club when it was a very reasonable price and two of the downloads were the same Sue and Sam but more of them. (see this link).
So far I have appliqued ten blocks to make two quilts. They are fun and easy to do and I think they turned out well.
See what you think.
Now I just need to work out what to do about their faces. The sideways ones are fine but I think too many blank stares could cause nightmares amongst the young.
Anyway I am working on the rest of the top in my dungeon so pop back another day if you would like to see the results. I’m on a roll so it shouldn’t take too long. After all housework is not good for the soul, only the conscience.
I used the fabric I dyed myself and put into a blog last year. I find it much easier to get variations whilst tying colours together using a fabric with lots of shades and patterns in different densities.
They also do matching embroideries. (see this link.)
Here is one I did earlier.
