SUN BONNET SUE ---UPDATE

Post by Redtop » Thu Feb 14, 2008 9:42 am

I remember someone saying something about a Sun Bonnet Sue Exchange. I think most wanted to wait until after Christmas or after the New Year.

Is there still an interest in exchanging this cute little lady???? I would be interested if we didn't have to make to many blocks.

I don't remember who wanted to host this exchange. If whoever still wants to host it I'd like to join.



UPDATE: GARDENQUILTER(LYNN) HAS AGREED TO HOST THIS SWAP!!!
SHE HAS STARTED THE SWAP UNDER "SUN BONNET SUE EXCHANGE"
THIS IS GOING TO BE AN ENJOYABLE PROJECT. IF YOU ARE INTERESTED, HURRY AND SIGN UP. I FEEL THAT THIS SWAP IS GOING TO FILL UP QUICKLY. HAVE FUN

oh my!! I am in the process of making a Sun Bonnet Sue quilt for my Mom. I don't applique so I am doing a paperpieced Sue. I won't commit to doing this, because I have never appliqued but I will look forward to seeing what everyone does :)

This is a swap I would love to join in! I love SBS, making her is like playing paper dolls becasue I get to pick her clothes, fun! I'm in, Amie :o)

PS- I have El's SBS book, I'd love to pick her clothes...makes me feel like a child again! She could wear 30's clothes, afrikan clothes, contemporary cloths, plaid, oh my!
