Civil War Style SUN BONNET Pattern SHAPED CLOTH BONNET Timeless Stitches TSA-553

Description

Timeless Stitches SHAPED CLOTH BONNET pattern TSA-553.  This is a new, unused pattern in the original factory fold.
From the pattern:  "Soft fabric bonnets were the most common bonnets of the 19th century.  They came ion many shapes and sizes, but all served one major purpose...to protect the wearer from the elements.  "Ladies of fashion" thought these styles of bonnet to be "prairie or frontier", but many women could not afford, or did not have access to the shaped bonnets and hats, so they made fabric bonnet and added trims and ruffles to dress them up.
This pattern is for a bonnet that combines several features from our other bonnet patterns.  The shape comes form the stiff brim, which can be done using four different methods:  quilting, cording, pin tucking or slats.  The look of the bonnet is completed by your choice of ruffles and the length of the bavolet (curtain).  Instructions are included for the four methods of brim construction, as well as the different lengths and style of  bavolet....information about fabric choices is included."
The pattern calls for approx. 1 yard  of 45" basic fabric depending on your choices for ties, ruffle and bavolet.  1/2 yard of scrap muslin or cotton used for stiffening within the brim (Warm and Natural quilt batting works very well) Plastic canvas, cardboard or balsa wood for optional slat brim.  For optional corded brim 5 yards of #70 cable core (3/8" cotton cord)  For ribbon ties:  1 1/2 yards of 1-1/2 inch double-sided satin ribbon or grosgrain ribbon.  1 yard of 1/4"-1/2" ribbon for drawstring.
