It is already on show Anne - HERE - for all my friends to see who have encouraged me lol !! We are having a little exhibition on the 25/26th and now I have finished it, I will put it on show there, plus the D9 patch that I made last month WE might be lucky and get a few people through the doors, quilting is not very popular here in Spain sadly :D

Thanks Barb, I used to love Hollie Hobby as a little girl, I didn't realise until fairly recently that she was a spin off from sunbonnet sue :D

Hello again,

Actually I meant to say Sunbonnet Sue. I guess since they are so simmular, Hollie Hobbie came to mind first. Either one is cute. I did a few 1 blk. Art Quilts using Sun/B/Sue and added some embroidered flowers to her hands. I like Applique and had Aplq. them. I was born in `46 and can`t remember them being around back in those days. Eloise was a popular little girl character in the `50`s. And the traditional Raggedy Ann & Andy. Love them all.
Thanks for writing back Izy. Take Care,
Barb
