Sunbonnet Sue Sitting on Stool

About this design

This charming embroidery design features the beloved Sunbonnet Sue motif, a little country girl shown in profile with her face hidden beneath an oversized ruffled bonnet, seated quietly on a tall wooden stool. She wears a soft pink dress with a scalloped hem and a bow-tied sash, matching pink bonnet with a ribbon streamer, and dainty slippers, while the warm golden-orange stool grounds the composition with rustic country charm. Worked in smooth directional fill stitches with crisp dark outline detailing, the design captures the nostalgic hand-stitched look of traditional quilt-block appliqué in a clean machine-ready format. The pink and tan palette makes it ideal for baby quilts, sampler quilt blocks, nursery pillows, kitchen tea towels, aprons, bibs, burp cloths, tote bags, table runners, pillowcases, and wall hangings. It is a heartfelt choice for baby showers, christenings, birthdays, Mother's Day, Grandparents Day, and handmade heirloom gifts for daughters, granddaughters, and quilting friends. Vintage, feminine, and full of old-fashioned country sweetness, this Sunbonnet Sue stitches beautifully on cotton, linen, denim, and quilters' muslin. Compatible with popular embroidery machine formats including DST, PES, EXP, JEF, VP3, HUS, XXX, PEC, and more.
