What a Trifling word... Bonnet! Pray do not understand me incorrectly, I truly love and adore bonnets. The way they sit upon the dainty head of a lady. Or the way the ribbons fly all over in the air, creating quite a picturesque moment. It is just the dreaded chore of making and dressing them. My first bonnet was a complete and utter mess, as a result ended in lots of tears ( and hugs from my loving mother). After 6 months of bad luck with nothing but a wad of straw, wax paper, needle and thread. It was time to put bonnet making down for a very LONG time.
After two years... I felt a crazy need to try yet again! So here we are. When i have photo's, i will post them. Just so you know i am using Mrs.Lynch's straw bonnet pattern. Available At thedressmakersshop.com. This pattern was drafted from an original straw bonnet. Will write again when i have photos!!
God bless
