I made these sweet little wedding Sunbonnets for my brother and SIL's anniversary. The "Dime-In-Ring" Sam is holding is 2002, the year they married. I dressed'em up with hotfix crystals, and wish y'all could see them sparkle. Every year is special for them as with us all. This year not only do they celebrate their anniversary, but September 25 a year since my brothers kidney transplant. Our family is so blessed!!! He's our family miracle!!
The design is from The Country Needle, FSL Wedding Sunbonnet Set. I love it when she has sales. When I purchased this set and others they were 35% off and 3 days after, they were 50% off. LOL But, I'm happy and love how they turned out.I hope my brother and SIL love them, too!

Thank you so much. That dime gave me fits! I was buffing it to make it a bit shiny and it flew away from me. I looked all over the place for it and went throuh all our dimes in a jar to find another 2002 and start over. One of our new kittens knocked over the basket for all my scrap thread and stabilizer and there was the dime!! Not only did it fly, it jumped into a basket 12 inches tall! LOL
