I just don't like the other SBS.

I have two sets of Sunbonnet Sam farmers done. They are appliqued on muslin backgrounds with borders. Not all the borders are the same but some are John Deere. I'd say my Sam could be happy with your Sue for a wife. :)

BRT: you are so right, it is American Gothic, not Americana. But they still look like my sis and her hubby!

Well put Gwyn...I totally agree! I love all the blocks that I have recieved from swaps on this board. They are not all perfect and I am glad for that...I'm not perfect either. :lol: Gives it more character!

Not really, they aren't due until 15 Feb...I've just found that if I don't mail things when I finish them that they just sit here, collect cat hair and get buried. Plus, it makes me feel like I accomplished something :wink:

My chickens aren't hatched yet either. We have a few more days and they are on my list. I think I"ll start them by next weekend. We just make 12 right?
