I have a client who has me create a Sunbonnet for each of her girls every 3 years with the clothing they wore during the 3 years prior. This is the picture of the first two. Embellishment, especially the hat rims, are buttons, bows, ruffles, etc., that were taken from the outfits. One little girl got a pink bordered one and the other little girl got the lavender bordered one. The second photo is from a client who lost her husband last year. Sunbonnet Sues and Fisherman Freds are appliqued out of his shirts with embellishments in the hat rims.

wow, what great quilts, thanks for sharing.

Very nice!

What a cute idea. The kids will remember those fabrics and hopefully it will bring back great memories. Thank you for showing them to us

They are wonderful! Love the idea!
