Handmade Upcycled Quilt Tote Bag – Sunbonnet Sue - Yellow and Pink

Handmade Quilted Sunbonnet Sue Tote Bag – One of a Kind

This delightful handmade tote celebrates one of quilting’s most beloved vintage motifs: Sunbonnet Sue. Sweet, nostalgic, and full of storybook charm, this bag features appliqué Sue blocks on both sides, each with her signature bonnet and dress, stitched with playful detail.

One side shows Sue in a soft pink bonnet and a cheerful red dress dotted with bright accents, framed by rosy and blue borders. Turn the bag around and you’ll find a sunny version in yellow and blue, giving you two charming looks in one. The classic blue floral print around the top and sides adds a timeless, cottage-style finish.

The bag is fully quilted for a soft but sturdy feel, making it both practical and cozy. Wide woven straps sit comfortably on your shoulder, perfect for carrying quilting supplies, books, handwork projects, or everyday essentials. It’s a wonderful blend of usefulness and handmade artistry.
Sunbonnet Sue has been a favorite in quilts since the early 20th century, symbolizing childhood innocence and simple joys. This tote carries that same warm, vintage spirit — like a little quilt you can take with you wherever you go.
