| Sunbonnet Sue doll quilt |
My sisters and I each made a Sunbonnet Sue quilt from blocks our Mom made. The Half Moon Lake Retreat was a special time for all of us.

Oh crap that is adorable! What a lucky find for you. :-)
ReplyDeleteSo sweet...
ReplyDeleteThat is just so cute! Some lucky girl will just treasure that quilt!
ReplyDeleteThat is just too darn cute. Someone is going to be thrilled (and surprised). I clicked on the links to see your retreats and the quilts you and your sisters made - what fun that must have been!
ReplyDeleteSunbonnet SUe!!! With her little bonnet and apron, I love her. Lucky doll
ReplyDeleteJust darling! That's a great rescue! My sister-in-law made a beautiful pink Sun Bonnet Sue quilt for my oldest daughter when she was born. I just found it again, and think my granddaughter will love having her mommy's quilt. Plus it's pink!
ReplyDeleteThat is so adorable. The colors are lovely.
ReplyDeleteI remember those Sunbonnet Sue and her "friend" Overall Sam.
What a wonderful quilt. I just love Sunbonnet Sue. I'm glad you rescued her. Blessings, Betsy
ReplyDeleteSBS is one of my favorites, and this quilt of yours is SO cute! Nice save.
ReplyDeleteSunbonnet Sue - tried and true. Just read your blog about mother's blocks. What beautiful work she did. I am so pleased you and your sisters caught the love of sewing and continue to this day. Your doll blanket is delightful and I feel sure it will gladden a young girl's heart to own this.
ReplyDeleteSuebonnet Sue is adorable. My mother would love that. Good rescue!
ReplyDeleteThat looks like the panel that the gals at Little Quilts designed. It will be wonderful for a little girl's doll. Truth told -- I'm not a fan of Sues.
ReplyDeleteI love Sunbonnet Sue quilts. I've never made one but someday I plan to.
ReplyDeleteI love that block too and your find made a wonderful doll quilt that will be treasured by the little girl that receives it! I love the memories it evoked of your mother and your retreat with your sisters.
ReplyDeleteMy MIL made our daughter a Sunbonnet Sue quilt when she was 2. It's amazing with prairie points and buttons in each block. I keep it in the cedar chest and our girl will get it when she has a place of her own.
We've had many Miller moth experiences here as well. Some years they are worse than others and I have sucked them up with my vacuum cleaner, filling the canister on a daily basis in years past.
