Marching along with Sue...

 The Sunbonnet Sue Sampler Club met Tuesday night to make Sue herself. It was their first attempt at using fusible webbing and they did a great job. They had fun choosing which of their fabrics to use for each part of Sue and traded some fabrics so they each had hands and shoes that worked.
 We spent some time admiring everyone's work so far....they all have their sashings cut and in some part put on the blocks.Some had already sewn theirs together into rows!

 It's interesting to see all of the color palettes used and their comments to each other about color choices.

 They meet one more time to make the ninth block in January.

I've only ever made 2 Sue blocks, and they were for someone else. We got to embellish the Sue blocks (ruffles, trims, etc) and it was so much fun to see what everyone else came up with. I'll have to do a Sue block for me, one day.
