| Sunny Jim |
April 20, 1933-
Sunny Jim could just as well been called "The Overall Boy" joked Nancy Cabot when introducing her pattern for this block, as she felt he seems "to be in a serous, thoughtful mood" with his sunny disposition "not so evident." His hat was to be made from "a light yellow, straw colored material, his shirt of a peppy print, and the overalls of blue-either striped or plain." I wonder what a peppy print looked like in 1933!
Since this is an applique pattern, I did not make the block. You can download a drawing
here to make an applique pattern if you would like to make this block.
Here's an old block I found that looks like Nancy's
Sunny Jim block. You can see it used in a quilt and read more about it
here.
Tomorrow-
Double Pyramid
