Oh how cute!!!! I need to make one of these adorable bonnets for my cousin’s new baby girl!

elise March 5, 2010 at 5:49 am

so darling! looks like one my mother made for me when we lived out on the family farm… i’d love some matching pictures of my daughter Emory in yours!

Amanda March 5, 2010 at 6:19 am

This would look adorable on my little girl! Love your site!

Alexis March 5, 2010 at 6:21 am

These are adorable! I’m due with a little girl right before Easter this year and this would be great to use for her for Easter!

So you probably don’t want to hear this but I think I will try to make one of those for my Boxer this weekend. The Irish Festival is in Dallas and she has to dress up to represent NORCAL Boxer Rescue in the parade. This Bonnet will match the dress I made her.

On another note I would love to win that bonnett for my someday daughter. Or to give to one of my friends if they will stop having boys.

Love your blog!

I just found your blog from Somewhat Simple, and let me just say that I think I love you.

I would love to win this bonnet! I don’t have a girl yet, but we’re trying for #3 and really really hope it’s a girl!

Jessica March 5, 2010 at 8:10 am

I recently found your blog and this new tutorial will make a PERFECT gift for my sister’s baby girl. I plan to use our grandmother’s old hankie, so appropriate since baby-to-be will be named after her. Also planning to make a matching wrap dress using your tutorial. Thank you!!!

Carey March 5, 2010 at 8:38 am

I check your blog every day! You have inspired me to reevaluate how I shop and to repurpose items that I was no longer wearing/using. Your blog also totally and completely started my crafty blogs addiction. Seriously, thank you!

P.S. I would love, love, loooooove that bonnet for my baby, Lola!

Amanda March 5, 2010 at 8:44 am

Thanks very much! It’s so very sweet and perfect for spring!

Too stinkin’ cute! How I wish I had a little girl to wear it, but it would look just as cute on my friend’s little girl!

Emily March 5, 2010 at 11:47 am

I am in LOVE! We’re expecting our first little girl in about 3 weeks and oh, how I would adore to put in her that gorgeous bonnet:) I am going to keep my fingers crossed until Monday night!

Laura Wilkinson March 5, 2010 at 12:36 pm

I don’t have any baby girls anymore, just toddlers, but I have a lot of friends expecting. This would make a perfect gift. I hop I win.

anne March 5, 2010 at 12:48 pm

so sweet! i have a bag of vintage hankies that i have been holding onto waiting for inspiration… i have five baby showers to attend in the next three months… if i won one of yours that’s a little less sewing pressure!

Ellie Campbell March 5, 2010 at 1:13 pm

I love this! Want to try it immediately. The hankies are incredibly cute.

I have a very cute little baby girl that would look absolutely adorable in a bonnet this summer! My cousin has a cute new baby. If not maybe I’ll just have to make her one myself.

Good work ! Keep us posting, you are very good writer.

becky July 15, 2011 at 12:20 pm

Thank you so much. I love your tutorials they are soooooooo easy to follow. I have been looking at this bonnet for months and wanting to make it, and I just got my hands on a hankie. This was so easy my little lady wasn’t loving it cause she couldn’t rub the fuzz on her head but it looks sooo cute on her. I will definitely be making these for baby gifts. Thank you so much for all your great tutorials.

Dona Russell September 15, 2011 at 9:36 am

I have tried to click on the link above to see your pattern, and it won’t let me, it says it is a dangerous site that might harm my computer. Can you post it via another link? I’d love to see this and think it would be a very fun baby gift idea. Thanks for posting it in the first place and thanks for your efforts to make it available to us all! Love your blog. Great ideas and inspiration. Dona

Clicking on the photo will take you to the tutorial. The link that is there is where I originally debuted this tutorial and it looks like something is wrong with that site.
