Six Sonner Suns


I have (finally) finished my circle-themed quilt. Six Sonner Suns is about our recent trip to Germany to visit my husband's aunt and uncle. We are all Sonners (4 by birth, 2 by marriage). We traveled around the green countryside and enjoyed lots of sunshine with blue skies and some clouds. We even found a strawberry farm run by Sonners. It was fun recreating the colors of the trip and adding happy family photos. This quilt is part of my family history series, which is evolving into family travel.

Hi Anne! Your quilt is just wonderful, and so you! I love the colors and the suns. Very nice.

Thanks, Ann. It was fun to do. Sometimes you just have to make something happy and not too hard. This quilt wasn't one of my most challenging, but I like it.

A good concatenation of "sun" and "Sonner". I expect there must be correspondences between each sun and the members of your group.

Yes, there were 6 of us Sonners (photos of everyone except me are on the quilt). I was told that "Sonner" means "of the sun" in German. (However, a genealogy book said "Sonner" was first "Sanner.") Whatever- we'll stay with the suns.
