Free pattern: Sue and friend

April 4, 2009 by Denise Felton Leave a Comment

suedog1Uh-oh! I missed this precious image of our girl, Sunbonnet Sue, playing with her best friend! Don’t fret, though. The free pattern is still available from CC at Lace ‘n’ Ribbon Roses blog.

Sunbonnet Sue is a classic embroidery pattern that has been around since the late 19th century. It features a young girl wearing a bonnet and dress, holding a basket or umbrella.

The pattern was first created by Ella J. Sperry, a popular embroidery artist of the time. The pattern quickly became popular and was used by many embroiderers to decorate quilts, clothing, and other items.

Today, Sunbonnet Sue is still popular among embroiderers and quilters, and there are many free patterns available online. Whether you are a beginner or an experienced embroiderer, Sunbonnet Sue is a great pattern to start with – it’s easy to learn and can be adapted to suit any skill level. So if you’re looking for a classic pattern to get started with, Sunbonnet Sue is it!
