Since macOS Catalina, macOS does not use the ~/Library/StickiesDatabase file and instead has split the individual stickies in that digest file to separate RTFD documents stored elsewhere in that Library location.
/Users/username/Library/Containers/Stickies/Data/Library/Stickies/
In Finder, navigate to that last Stickies location in the above path. Then launch the Time Machine application and its initial window will open on the same location. Restore that Stickies folder and each of your Stickies from that backup timeframe will be restored in that folder.

Does anything in the following support article's help..?

I found a folder on time machine called library/com.apple.stickiesmigration
I tried to restore that but nothing happens -- where are the stickies stored on sonoma? I do not think I have found the right files
👍
