Newborn bonnet

We’ve reached that stage of pregnancy – here’s a grapefruit on the counter modeling my latest project.

It’s reversible.

With piping on both sides.

I loved this pattern – surprisingly simple to sew, even though the store bought binding looked terrible, and my replacement home-made binding should have been wider (I was almost out of the pink fabric, though, so it will have to do). This is a “pictures don’t do it justice” item, not because the detail is lacking, but because it looks so very tiny. Impossible to have something that teeny not look adorable.

Wonder if it will fit? If it does, it probably won’t for long. I’ll definitely have to make more in bigger sizes.
