    I plan on starting my Farmers wife ( sun bonnet sue) today or tomorrow. I cheated too. I bought 24 SBS's from ebay. I just need to apply to a muslin block and then blanket stitch and embroider them. Think I'll make it. Hope so. I am new to using the blanket stitch on my machine.

    OK here is my block....it was actually not easy trying to find cow fabric...I may try to change some of the corner stones to a holstein cow print because I have so many...
    but just let me know truthfully....is this way to simple? Would any of you feel cheated with these blocks?

    I wouldn't feel cheated at all. I think it's cute.

    I love the cow picture but aren't we supposed to do an off white/cream background so all the blocks would go together nicely?
