While poking around in our archives we found these three adorable Sunbonnet Sues. They were winners in a contest featured in The Quilt Life magazine back in 2012.
Enjoy !

I think they are adorable.
But what I really want is to do one like a quilt my grandmother made that I have memories of as a child.
I remember it as more of a Sunbonnet girl quilt. They were older looking than the Sue,did have aprons also, and I believe they had parasols.
She passed away when I was 7 and I have no idea what happened to the quilt.
I have searched patterns off and on for years and never have been able to find one that was like the girls on her quilt so I don't know if it was a pattern that went around during her lifetime (she was born in 1880 and died in 1955) or one that she modified herself.
Love these ideas.
