I couldn’t stand it. Yesterday I thought I had my Sunbonnet Sue Redwork quilt finished to the flimsy stage, but the red border that I had on it just wasn’t working for me. So after staring at this quilt top on the design wall for the morning, I decided to just remove that red border. I think that red fabric was a little too heavy and overpowering for the blocks. Here it is, in its revised finished flimsy stage – now measuring 44 in x 57 in. I will go ahead and add this one to the “to be quilted” pile.
Good call on removing the red! This is way is perfectly cute and subtle.
Love the Sunbonnet Sue. Where can the patterns be found?
much better with the simple frames even if it did take a lot of cutting extra strips. Every quilt does not need a border, in my opinion, LOL.
