I started sewing Sun Bonnet Sue's out of the scraps from dresses I made for darling daughter. They were a lot of fun to sew both the dresses and the Sues, then printing photos on fabric became possible. I pull this out every few years and think of ways to put it together but still have not put any action with the thoughts. I have 25 photos and as many 5.5 inch Sues to work into it. And I still have a box of fabrics from the 1990's good thing. Right now I like grouping all the photos together and putting the Sun Bonnets in a border since the challenge is to keep it small. But for now they are going back in the box. Happy Memories. --Ann--

Thank you for revisiting this project with us. Looking at the close-ups of the Sunbonnet Sue's gave me smiles!
ReplyDeleteWhat a great idea! I did my SBS in embroidery using lots of stitches besides the normal outline stitch.
