There is nothing sweeter than girls in pretty pink dresses in the springtime. With the lovely weather upon us, days are often spent outdoors. Egg hunts are such fun. Does anyone else remember the song, In Your Easter Bonnet?
In Your Easter Bonnet
Sweet sisters Chanel and Farrah are all decked out for the holiday in shades of pink, cream, and rose.
Precious Chanel loves everything pink.
Darling cherub Farrah wears a Grace baby bonnet and Rose baby dress.
The dresses were custom made by me from vintage 100% cotton calico. The rick rack detail on Chanel’s dress makes me smile.
Do you have a sweet little honey bunny that could use a bonnet or sunhat?
I made several bonnets and sun hats for my Etsy Shop, but they are now sold out.
Willie and Grace
The Willie sunhats and Grace bonnets are reversible.
They are available in sizes newborn to age 3.
Traditional sunbonnets and aprons are available for older girls, teens, and ladies.
You can request plain bonnets or aprons or have them embellished with eyelet, lace or rick rack.
As always I believe in giving back and 10% of each sale will be donated to the Little House on the Prairie cabin rebuilding needed in Kansas.
All of the beautiful images of my Prairie Girls were taken by the immensely talented photographer Hannah Mitchell.
Would you wear a sunbonnet?
Laura
They are cute as buttons! Love the prints you used.
Oh Laura, those little girls are way too cute and those bonnets are stunning. Your sewing ability if next to none and everything is always so beautifully made of pretty vintage fabric. Love it all.
How sweet! You are so very talented and the fabrics you chose are perfect!
Laura,
Your Eater Bonnets are adorable!. I tried using the link in your post to go to your Etsy Shop. When you click the link it takes you to Etsy ,but wants you to open an account to sell items. What’s the name of your Esty Shop? I’ll just go from there.
Laura, they are adorable! This made me think of my Granny. She loved to use rick rack.
Laura, Your work is perfection and the photographer did a fabulous job. Thank you for sharing the beauty and the cause.
Laura,
The bonnets bring back memories of my grandmothers, aunts, and extended older women in my family. When I was growing up all the women wore homemade cotton bonnets similar to yours. They wore them to protect their heads and faces as they worked outside… long before sunscreen became available. Your models are adorable, and your bonnets are gorgeous.

Your little ones are just adorable and the photos are just beautiful. I love the selection of the prints for that Bonnet pattern. I still have some of my Grandmother’s Bonnet’s and I treasure them. Thanks so much for sharing your talent with us!

Laura I can’t thank you enough for the love prairie apron I purchased from you. If I close my eyes, I can see myself in that time period but in my wheat fields of Kansas. where I grew up along with all the Little House on the Prairie books.. Your story is fascinating and your seamstress abilities are second to none. Thanks again.
