My "Little House" Girl

L has been begging to make a sunbonnet for awhile. I finally decided to "be a neat mom" and help her with it today. She has been reading the Little House on the Prairie books, so anything resembling Laura and Mary is high on her priority list right now.


and yes...it was hot today. But she insisted that Laura and Mary probably wore long sleeves, even in the summer.


She received this for her birthday...the directions told how to sew the whole sunbonnet by hand. We went with the sewing machine! Thankfully.
