I have greatly enjoyed looking at your px as they progressed. I guess we never get tired of the Sunbonnets, no matter our age.

Karen May, I love the way the ribbon is folded into a flower on your last Sunbonnet's hat. Did you do that from scratch? GREAT looking flower!

Mine are done with needleturn applique. Thanks for sharing your px.

I went to the site you posted and copied it AND the reply! guess I'll have to make good and do a Sunbonnet Sue now. Come to think of it I think I made a separate block when I did my GD's quilt years ago and if I find it I'll post that one. :lol: If not give me a little time to make good. :lol:

Today I worked on Sunbonnet Sue...she's actually "Southern Belle" Sue. She and Brett had another falling out so he wrote her a note to let her know he didn't give a damn! (Yes, I know Brett isn't correct if one is going strickly by the "Gone With The Wind" pages...but then it's Scarlette NOT STARLETTE, too! This was my attempt at doing a naughty Sue. I might come up with a "Brett" block one of these days.

Hi Guys: My computer hiccupped yesterday and wouldn't post the Southern Bell Sunbonnet Sue block but maybe it will today. Here's mine. If you can't read the "Dear Starlette" letter ..."From the Plantation of Brett Buster, Savannah, Georgia...to Starlette: Frankly, my dear, I don't give a damn!...not too original but I did change the names to protect the guilty. :wink: :lol:
